Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is Lexington bourbon at full strength: a blend of older stocks drawn from distinctive mash bills built on corn, rye, malted barley and malted rye, aged in new toasted and charred barrels of air-seasoned Kentucky oak, then bottled straight from the barrel, uncut and unfiltered, at an average age of over five years. In the glass it leads with toasted oak and walnut, opens into dried dark fruit and a hint of marzipan, and closes medium-long on creamy vanilla, citrus peel and nutmeg. It suits the drinker who already knows they like bourbon and wants to taste it at full strength, though a large ice cube will open new facets for anyone easing into barrel proof. It also earns its place in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan, where the strength keeps the whiskey forward. We carry it because it is an honest, uncut expression of the Pepper family's Kentucky whiskey legacy, and the decanter looks right on a collector's shelf.
Pairs well with
- Grilled ribeye steak — The toasted oak and walnut notes echo the char on the steak and stand up to its richness.
- Pecan pie for dessert — The nutty, marzipan and creamy vanilla notes mirror the pie's toasted nuts and caramelized filling.
- Fireside Boulevardier evening — The bourbon's robust oak and dried dark fruit give a Boulevardier a sturdy backbone that holds its own against the bitter and sweet components.
