Kings County Barrel Strength Peated Bourbon

Brooklyn’s oldest operating distillery refuses to compromise. Traditional pot distillation combined with exceptionally narrow cuts results in an unyielding spirit packed with hefty viscosity. It's their oldest batched release, uniting five to eight-year-old casks. Time spent maturing in the barrel fundamentally alters the underlying peat character. The prolonged oak contact tames the initial aggressive smoke, morphing those heavy campfire elements into a much earthier, deeply nuanced profile that commands attention rather than simply screaming for it.

High proof articulates the absolute truth. By presenting this peated mashbill completely unadulterated at barrel strength, Kings County lays bare the underlying tension between rich New York organic corn and Scottish peat. It challenges the conventional boundaries of American whiskey. You're getting an unfiltered look into how extended aging rounds off the sharp corners of young smoke. This release stands entirely apart from their standard offering, trading straightforward barbecue sweetness for an intricate tapestry of dark sugars and robust tannins.
