Discovery Series #13 represents a bold evolution in Bardstown Bourbon Company’s celebrated blending program. Known for transforming exceptional components into something greater than the sum of their parts, the Discovery Series reaches new territory with its first-ever double-barreled release, elevating both depth and dimension.
This limited-edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon begins as a carefully curated blend, rich with classic bourbon character, before undergoing secondary maturation in American and Hungarian oak. The influence of Hungarian oak—rarely used in bourbon—introduces an intriguing contrast: amplifying sweetness while layering in savory spice, gentle smoke, and toasted complexity. Embracing the mystique of its number, Discovery #13 turns superstition into strength, delivering a whiskey that is confident, complex, and unmistakably distinctive.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon from Bardstown Bourbon Company's Discovery Series blending program, and #13 marks the series' first-ever double-barreled release: a curated blend that goes through secondary maturation in American and Hungarian oak. Hungarian oak is rarely used in bourbon, and here it pushes the sweetness forward while adding savory spice, gentle smoke, and toasted complexity. Expect caramel and vanilla on the nose with dried orchard fruit and a faint thread of campfire ash. The palate brings toffee, brown sugar, and vanilla cream, giving way to cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. The finish is long and warming, ending on spiced oak and soft embers. It suits the drinker who already knows classic bourbon and wants to taste what a different oak can do. As a limited-edition release, it also earns a spot in a collector's lineup. We carry it because the oak story is more than a label idea. You can taste the contrast in the glass, especially when it is poured neat with a few drops of water.
Pairs well with
- Dark chocolate — The bittersweet cocoa plays against the bourbon's toffee and brown sugar while highlighting its gentle smoke.
- Toasted nuts — Their roasted character echoes the toasted oak and spiced finish.
- Celebratory evening pour — The rich, layered palate and long, warming finish make it a bottle worth opening for a special occasion.
