The result is a perfectly balanced, robust whiskey that reflects Kentucky Owl’s commitment to producing some of the finest bourbons available.

Nose: An immediate tingle in the nose from the combined rye grains in the bourbons and their age. Followed by a smooth caramel and vanilla pause. Lastly, comes a mild and gentle chocolate vanilla oak.

Palate: The spiciness of the combined bourbon grains, along with the tannins in the wood barrel tingle the mouth with flavor. Followed by a soft flow of bourbon vanilla tea and soft wine.

Finish: Mild as the tingle fades, with a soft apple lingering in the throat.

Kentucky Owl Straight Bourbon Batch 11 pairs beautifully with hearty and savory dishes. Enjoy it with grilled steaks, slow-cooked ribs, or roasted pork to complement the bourbon’s bold and complex profile. For a dessert pairing, consider a dark chocolate tart or spiced pecan pie to enhance its sweet and spicy notes. The bourbon’s robust character also pairs well with aged cheeses, such as sharp cheddar, gouda, or blue cheese.
