Blade and Bow Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey uses a unique Solera System aging process to preserve the heritage of Stitzel-Weller Distillery. Uncommon in the bourbon industry, this tiered blending method creates a complex liquid by using the best of both the older and newer distillates. This spirit is aged in charred American white oak barrels and begins with a nose of fresh fruit, followed by hints of dried apricot, ripe pear, and sweet roasted grain on the palate. The finish includes notes of charred oak and warm winter spices. Each bottle is adorned with one of five collectible keys, representing the components of crafting bourbon - grains, yeast, fermentation, distillation, and aging - which have grown to symbolize the Southern traditions of hospitality, warmth, and enjoying the finer things in life. This bourbon is best enjoyed straight, either neat or on the rocks. Includes one 91 proof 750 mL bottle of Blade and Bow Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Please drink responsibly.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon built around something uncommon in the bourbon world: a Solera System, a tiered blending method that marries older and newer distillates to preserve the heritage of the Stitzel-Weller Distillery. The result, aged in charred American white oak and bottled at 91 proof, opens with a fresh-fruit nose before dried apricot and ripe pear give way to sweet roasted grain, then a finish of charred oak and warm winter spice. It is approachable enough for someone reaching for a first bottle of thoughtful bourbon, yet the solera approach and the five collectible keys, one on each bottle and each representing grains, yeast, fermentation, distillation or aging, give collectors a reason to keep an eye on the shelf. It took a Double Gold Medal at the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and we think the fruit-forward profile earns it. We carry it because it drinks beautifully neat or on the rocks, holds its own in an Old Fashioned, and tells a genuinely different story from the typical bourbon lineup.
Pairs well with
- Charcuterie with dried fruit — The bourbon's dried apricot and pear notes play off cured meats, cheeses and dried fruit for a sweet-savory balance.
- Pear and aged cheese plate — Ripe pear on the palate and a sweet roasted-grain middle echo fresh fruit and nutty cheese.
- Fireside winter evening — A finish of charred oak and warm winter spices makes this a natural slow sipper when the weather turns cold.
