King of Kentucky 14 year 130.5 Proof Straight Bourbon Whiskey

It is made from their Early Times mash bill (79% corn, 11% rye, 10% malted barley) and aged in new, charred American oak for 14 years. It aged in a heat-cycled warehouse for the first 7 years and the last 7 years without. These are single barrel releases so expect to see proof ranging from 125-135. King of Kentucky is a rebirth of the classic brand by Brown-Forman. The original King of Kentucky label was named in honor of horse racing, also known as the “sport of kings.” According to the company, “...this release is based on a brand of the same name that was established in 1881. Brown-Forman acquired the brand from Selected KY Distillers, Inc. in 1936, and discontinued it in 1968.”
