History,
Pure Kentucky XO is produced by Kentucky bourbon distillers. The company was formerly the Willett Distilling Company. Willet distilling started in 1936 and did not become Kentucky Bourbon Distillers until July 1, 1984, when Even G. Kulsveen purchased the property. Even Kulsveen to this day operates the facility. The XO stands for extra old and the bourbon is 11 years old. This small batch whiskey is not to be taken lightly.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: black tea, cedar, musty, oak, spice, vanilla, soot.
Palate: eucalyptus, earth, more vanilla, cherry, rye grains coming to the forefront
Finish: salty, maple syrup, woods - think Pacific northwest rainforest
