Bluegrass Distillers Toasted Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Step into Kentucky craftsmanship with Bluegrass Distillers’ Toasted Oak Bourbon. It’s their Mash Bill #1—75% yellow corn, 21% rye, 4% malted barley—aged at least three years and then rested in lightly toasted white oak for a minimum of 21 days. That extra oak influence gifts you warm vanilla and butterscotch aromas, with a soft pepper bite dancing underneath. Sweet caramel and marshmallow unfold on your palate, mingling with maple, cinnamon, and just a touch of nutmeg. Finish lingers with oak toast, toffee, vanilla, and a gentle spice that warms long after the glass is empty. This is bourbon that balances softness with spice, time with toast—ideal for those seeking depth without overkill.

Nose: Vanilla and butterscotch lead, toast and baking spice follow.

Palate: Sweet entry—caramel marshmallow, maple syrup, cinnamon sugar; oak toast and nutmeg join mid-sip.

Finish: Oak stalks forward with toffee and vanilla; gentle spice echoes in a smooth, lingering close.

Pair with pecan pie or buttered shortbread to amplify vanilla-maple sweetness. Charred pork chop highlights the oak toast and spicy rye backbone. For contrast, dark chocolate with sea salt sharpens the flavor palate.
