Cream of Kentucky Cask Strength Kentucky Bourbon
The Cream of Kentucky brand was originally introduced in 1888 by I. Trager & Co. of Cincinnati, Ohio. Just prior to the end of Prohibition, the brand was acquired by the famed Schenley Company and subsequently re-introduced in 1934. Through the 1930s and 1940s Cream of Kentucky grew to become one of the leading bourbon brands, with renowned artist Norman Rockwell providing much of the award-winning artwork for the brand during its heyday. Cream of Kentucky is now owned by J.W. Rutledge, and Jim has recently purchased a limited supply of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey he feels is worthy of the rebirth of Cream of Kentucky Bourbon as a premium whiskey.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is simple: oak, baking spice, a little jam cake and that's about it. On the palate it leads with toffee, baking spice, black pepper, dark stone fruit, some dried fig, a little pipe tobacco and some charred oak. It finishes warm and hangs around for a long time. Judging by its light color and lean mouthfeel, I'm guessing it's about 5 years old, which would explain its lack of complexity.
This Cask Strength offers a robust flavor profile that ensures the continuation of our signature “Double-Rich” flavor promise. Personalize your drinking experience with a few drops of water or a cube of ice and unlock the full potential of our cask strength bourbon.
Mash Bill: 72% Corn, 18% Rye, 10% Malt
San Francisco World Spirits Competition Rating: 98 Pts.
58.7% ABV / 117.4 Proof
