History,
In celebration of the spirit of Mardi Gras and the pride of Louisiana, this expression of Kentucky Owl Straight Rye Whiskey has been gently aged for 11 years before sleeping a further year in a selection of rare Bayou XO casks to create and mature into Rye Whiskey of outstanding quality and flavor.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: A nice, tight nose of high rye intertwined with a low rumble of rum funk.
Palate: This is liquid gold, with a heavy mouthfeel quite unlike a typical rye. Round, spicy and yet sweet with rich caramel sauce, brown bread, pear tart, sugar icing and rum cake notes.
Finish: The finish is long, with more wood coming out towards the end and leaving on a ginger-like spice note.
