Kentucky Owl Description
In celebration of the long-standing ties that bond Irish and Kentucky Whiskey making, Kentucky Owl has partnered with Irish Whiskey Bonder Louise McGuane to help create our Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. This St Patrick’s Edition brings together the traditional bonding skills of selecting rare whiskey barrels and unique flavor profile, with the expertise of our Master Blender, John Rhea, resulting in this exceptional limited release.
Whisky Advocate
Need to know:
This is the second Kentucky Owl expression made under the direction of new master blender John Rhea, the former Four Roses veteran who came aboard last year. It follows the 2021 release of Kentucky Owl The Wiseman, which earned a 92-point score from Whisky Advocate’s tasting panel and landed a spot on our Top 20 Whiskies of 2021.
Kentucky Owl says this whiskey was blended “through Irish eyes.” What this means is that Rhea tapped Ireland whiskey bonder par excellence Louise McGuane as his partner for this collaboration. The two blenders aimed for accents with a more fruit-forward, Irish whiskey style that appeals to McGuane’s sensibility, while still hewing to the Kentucky Owl bourbon profile. After tasting through a wide selection of samples, the result was this blend of Kentucky straight bourbons aged 4 to 11 years.
