The last drops of Bourbon from a legendary still, squeezed into a bottle.

The Stitzel-Weller Distillery is stuff of Bourbon legend. It was founded on Derby Day in 1935 by Julian “Pappy” Van Winkle himself and some of the most legendary Bourbons and brands were made there. The distillery itself was closed in 1992 and is now a museum-like adjunct of Bulleit Bourbon Experience, owned by Diageo. But there is a lot of left-over Weller Bourbon in the storage lofts, along with “orphan” casks from other distilleries. Blade & Bow Bourbon blends these Bourbons solera-style to produce their range of two Whiskeys.

Blade & Bow Bourbon Straight Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey… the first thing you might notice is there is no age statement. Don’t let that throw you. Since this is a blend of orphan casks, accurately stating the age would be a near impossibility. But this is all premium aged Spirit aged in all the right ways, and blended from some of the finest Bourbon distilleries in the world. It’s rich and thick and you should judge it with the tongue. And due to the fact that no more Whiskey flows from the stills at the Stitzel-Weller Distillery, this tasty-train will one day come to an end, so make sure you get a sip first.

Blade and Bow

Nose is apple and banana. Taste is a mild start with fruit and a little mint. The finish brings on some spice.

Buy Two.

There are very few Bourbons I won’t mix with a Coke or put in a cocktail, this is one of them. Just a touch of water, a little ice, and enjoy; rich nose, caramel-oak front, good feel with a spiced-orange and subdued honey-apple finish, and it has some legs.

Nothing really stands out in this bourbon. It's an enjoyable pour that's simple and smooth. Comparable bottles are probably 1792 Small Batch and Bulleit Bourbon (90 proof). If I had to pick just one, I'd buy the 1792 Small Batch.

Got this through a quarterly box and will definitely be picking up another bottle in the future.
