Kings County Straight Bourbon
Kings County Distillery’s Bourbon is made from New York State organic corn and malted barley from the U.K., and aged in new, American oak charred barrels. It is characterized by a rich aroma of fresh corn, balanced with the sweet caramelized oak sap from small casks. It has a very strong sweet base with flavors of vanilla and caramel, a deep molasses taste to the middle notes, and leaves a smooth finish with hints of cinnamon and autumn spices. Aged 12 months or more, this bourbon is a precocious whiskey, surprisingly robust for its age.
Awards:
San Francisco World Spirits Competition: double-gold 2019, gold 2017, bronze 2018.
ADI Craft Spirit Awards: silver medal 2013 and 2014 (Best in Category), 2012, 2017, 2019, bronze 2018.
ACSA Awards: silver medals (2) 2014, 2016, 2019; bronze 2017, 2018.
Reviews:
“Crisp Demerara sugar; sumptuous texture, aided by melt-in-the-mouth natural caramels; an excellent outpouring of citrus-tinged vanilla; for a year-old bourbon the sugars have accumulated charmingly (89=excellent).”
– Jim Murray’s Whiskey Bible 2013
“Exotic and deep, with flavors of grain, licorice, vanilla and molasses.” (#2 Craft Bourbon, 3-Stars) — Eric Asimov, New York Times 2014.
