This exceptional bourbon is a true testament to Kentucky heritage, drawing from an immense inventory of aging barrels to select only the absolute best for this bottling. While the historic Bottled-in-Bond standard requires a spirit to be aged for four years, this expression is patiently matured for a full seven years to coax out an extra layer of rich wood sugars and incredible depth. Crafted under the watchful eye of award-winning Master Distiller Conor O'Driscoll, it delivers a robust, warm, and comforting experience that feels like sharing a piece of whiskey history. It is a wonderfully balanced pour that is perfect for celebrating a milestone or simply unwinding at the end of the day.
