Kentucky Owl Wiseman Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Details

Kentucky Owl was founded in 1879 by a local pharmacist, Charles Mortimer Dedman. He and his new bride received a large parcel of land on the banks of the Kentucky River as a wedding gift from his adopted father, a town judge. After running it by his wife, he decided to build the C.M. Dedman Distillery. For decades, it produced The Wise Man’s Bourbon under Distilled Spirits Plant Designation No. 16, one of Kentuckys original distilleries and part of a booming industry.

Alcohol percentage: 45.4

Tasting Notes

Nose has notes of caramel toffee, sweet char, crme brulee, cinnamon, vanilla and apple. Bright initial rich caramel sweetness. Vanilla and toffee coats the front of the palate, lingers and then spreads across the back. Mid-palate tingles with pepper, cinnamon, and a hint of ginger. Finish is lingering spice with deep oak notes.
