Ducks Unlimited Special Edition 10 Year Old Kentucky Bourbon No Box

Celebrate maturity and craftsmanship with Ducks Unlimited Special Edition 10-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon. A decade of aging in charred American oak barrels has imbued this bourbon with rich, layered character. Designed in collaboration between the World Whiskey Society and Ducks Unlimited, this release honors the heritage of the hunt and the land. Although this version comes without its box, the bottle’s custom design—featuring rifle engraver detailing, a metallic duck topper, and an age placard—still stands out as a collectible piece. Each sip reveals dark chocolate, smoked hickory, dried dates, licorice, and black cherry, all wrapped in molasses and dark sugars. Smooth enough to sip, complex enough to revisit—this bourbon rewards patience and nuance.

Nose: Dark chocolate and smoked hickory lead, followed by dried dates and earthy oak.

Palate: Rich molasses, black cherry and licorice, layered with warm baking spices and toasted oak.

Finish: Long and smooth, lingering with dark sugars, mellow smoke, and subtle fruit echoes.

Pair with dark chocolate bark to bring out its black cherry and chocolate notes. Aged cheddar or smoky pork belly accentuates the hickory and oak. Or enjoy after a wood-smoked brisket for a truly immersive flavor match.
