Kentucky Owl Takumi Limited Edition
Introducing, Kentucky Owl Takumi Limited Edition Bourbon Whiskey, by the Stoli Group.
A collaboration between master blenders, John Rhea of Kentucky Owl and Yusuke Yahisa of Nagahama Distillery, this latest limited edition showcases Kentucky bourbon through the eyes of Japanese whisky, per Stoli. “Takumi” means “master” in Japanese.
Rhea selected four different formulations and sent the samples to Japan. Yahisa evaluated those samples, which represented different ages and mash bills available from Kentucky Owl. Yahisa then created different blends with those formulations to develop one most reflective of his Japanese whisky style.
“This collaboration encompasses not just the art of blending, but the flavors and taste profiles that both countries are famous for in their whiskeys,” says Rhea. “The Takumi Edition provides bourbon lovers insight into the flavor profiles sought after by a Japanese whisky blender. As someone who has worked in the industry for several decades now, it was exciting for me to work with a rising star in whisky with a unique perspective.”
The Takumi Edition Bourbon is a blend of 4-, 5-, 6- and 13-year-old Kentucky straight bourbons, with mash bills containing corn, rye or wheat, and malted barley.
