The Kentucky Owl Confiscated is a remarkable bourbon whiskey with a rich history and unique flavor profile. This amber-colored whiskey is a tribute to the barrels of whiskey that were confiscated by the government during Prohibition, specifically in 1916 from the founder's great-great-grandfather.
The distillery, Kentucky Owl, was established in 1879 by C.M. Dedman, but unfortunately, during the Prohibition era, the entire stock of bourbon was seized, totaling nearly one million liters. The warehouse where the bourbon was stored burned down, leading to the demise of the distillery during that time.
The Kentucky Owl Confiscated is a blend of the finest bourbons from Kentucky, crafted in small batches. The whiskey has a very spicy flavor profile, with notes of cinnamon, cardamom, and ginger, providing a bold and well-balanced taste with a subtle sweetness.
On the nose, the whiskey offers aromas of peach, oak, vanilla, and tobacco, complemented by notes of white pepper, ginger, cinnamon butter, peaches and cream, oak spice, and nutmeg throughout the palate. The finish is spicy and warming, with hints of cayenne pepper.
