The Kentucky Owl St. Patrick's Edition is a limited-release bourbon whiskey that celebrates the profound connection between Irish and Kentucky whiskey craftsmanship. Bottled in 2022, this special edition boasts an ABV of 50% and comes in a 750 ml bottle. It is a meticulously curated blend of Kentucky Straight Bourbons aged between 4 to 8 years, created in collaboration with the renowned Irish whiskey bonder, Louise McGuane. McGuane's adeptness in selecting rare whiskey barrels with distinctive flavor profiles was pivotal in the making of this bourbon. The final blend was expertly crafted by Kentucky Owl's master blender, John Rhea, alongside McGuane, resulting in a robust and well-balanced bourbon experience.
This limited edition bourbon delights the senses with rich caramel and vanilla notes derived from some of the rarer, well-aged bourbons. The inclusion of bourbons with higher rye content introduces an intriguing mix of spice and fruit flavors. The blend also incorporates sweetness and citrus notes from wheated bourbon. On the palate, you will discover a symphony of flavors including caramel, butterscotch, frosted cinnamon roll, chocolate orange, candy floss, and citrus peel. A bright forest fruit flavor emerges mid-palate, leading to a long, lingering finish with vanilla pod and balanced undertones.
