The ultimate everyday Bourbon.

Henry Mckenna was an Irish immigrant who came to Kentucky in 1837. With a background in distilling, Mckenna brought with him the generations-old family Whisky recipe and set up shop in Fairfield, Kentucky — just about five miles from where the current Heaven Hill Distillery is located in Bardstown, Kentucky. The story of Heaven Hill is quite a tale to tell in itself. They started back in 1933 and remain the only family-owned distillery in Kentucky, with the second largest inventory of Bourbon in the world. In 1996, Heaven Hill's production plant was almost completely destroyed by fire. The company survived and while fermenting, mashing, and distilling now occurs at the new Louisville distillery, aging, bottling, and shipping still occur in Bardstown. The question is – what do good ol’ Henry and Heaven Hill have in common?

Well, besides the location, the love for Bourbon, of course. Now, you take that love for Bourbon, combine it with the classic Heaven Hill mash bill (75% corn, 13% rye & 12% barley), almost a hundred years of tradition, 10 years in the barrel, and you get Henry McKenna Single Barrel 10 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon. The Whiskey is Bottled-in-Bond* at 50% ABV and represents everything a proper traditional Bourbon’s supposed to be. It’s tasty, aromatic and packs quite a punch as well. Perfectly balanced. Last but not least – it represents outstanding value for money. It drinks like a Whiskey twice the price. But it doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not. It’s just a good old-fashioned straightforward Bourbon made with competence and love. Henry would approve.

Smartass Corner:
*Any spirit labeled as Bottled-in-Bond must be the product of one distillation season and one distiller at a single distillery. Also, the law requires that bonded spirits be aged in a federally bonded warehouse under U.S. government supervision for at least four years and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV). Henry McKenna is the longest aged Bottled-in-Bond available today, resting in the barrel through 40 Kentucky seasons.

Ratings & Reviews
Member Reviews and Ratings of Henry McKenna 10 Year Old Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Michael
Michael,
This is a fantastic bourbon for this price point. It checks all of the boxes for a classic bourbon flavor profile. Vanilla...check. Caramel...check. Oak...check. Spice...check. It even has notes of sweet tea on the finish and aftertaste. This is the perfect bottle to introduce someone into the world of bourbon.
 
Kevin
Kevin,
I get strong caramel and vanilla on the front end with the bang of fire on the backend. Great bottle for the price point.
 
James
James,
Not bad whiskey, but not what I expected from a 10 year old bourbon.
 
Travis
Travis,
Great neat
 
Aaron
Aaron,
Very smooth, mild flavor for the proof.
 
Brian
Brian,
I was talking with an older gent in Total Wine who was looking for Henry McKenna 10 and they were sold out, again! I found a bottle and I can see why the sell out, it's very enjoyable.
 
Jimmy
Jimmy,
In my mind, this tastes like a mainstream bourbon, in the best way. It's not over-the-top interesting for sure, but it checks the boxes you want checked. Makes for a great cocktail bourbon, better than most.
 
guest
guest,
Needs lots of ice, or just a splash of water. Very good though.
 
Scott
Scott,
Easy to drink for 100 proof
 
Nathan
Nathan,
Cinnamon, spice, caramel and a bit of fire.
 
Scott
Scott,
For the price, this is one of the most flavorful bourbons available. In a flood of new distillers and craft whiskeys this one stands out. They have found the balance between grains, cut, aging, and barrel char that makes this one of my favorite bourbons. Even at 100 proof it tastes of spice as opposed to alcohol burn.
 
Chris
Chris,
Just an amazing bourbon, probably the best I’ve had for the price. It’s always in my cabniet when I can find it on the shelf
 
Jeremiah
Jeremiah,
Pretty good, but has a lingering warmth that may be too intense for some people.
 
guest
guest,
Delicious. Period.
 
Kris
Kris,
Won double gold for a reason and for the price it's really solid, the caramel and oak are perfectly balanced
 
Scott
Scott,
What a bargain. It's definitely a sipping bourbon, but I felt it needed a drop or two of water to open up/account for it being 100 proof. Highly recommend.
 
Angelina
Angelina,
You cannot go wrong with this 10 year old bottle and Bond it has everything a whiskey should be, Carmel, maple, light smoke, from smell on the nose to the warmth on the palette it's got it to sip and make it a summer night.
 
Blake
Blake,
Great for everyday dram!
 
Rick
Rick,
Great price point for a 10 year.
 
Nolan
Nolan,
Excellent everyday sipper. At that price point there is no finer bourbon.
 
Kyle
Kyle,
Good, I enjoy it after a hard day working outside.
 
Scott
Scott,
This is one of my favorite bottles. It has a nice worthiness to it that really sets it apart.
 
JAMES
JAMES,
Very Good & Very Good value. Solid flavors. To me this needs water or ice it drinks at or above its 100 proof
 
Rebecca
Rebecca,
This bourbon is exactly what it says it is, the “Everyday Table Bourbon”. Heavy on wheat, light on rye, yet with more kick than other wheats such as Makers Mark. Fantastic on it’s own, but it shines in the perfect Old Fashioned with it’s hit of cinnamon & slight caramel notes from the charred oak. This is a staple in our household, especially since the price is below $35.00 in Indiana stores!
 
guest
guest,
Best bourbon for the price. Flavor that satisfies every time at a price you can enjoy every day
 
Jason
Jason,
Incredible value
 
Spencer
Spencer,
Excellent smooth tasting bourbon. Best everyday bourbon at a very reasonable price.
 
Mikel
Mikel,
Not a bad price, but a little harsh on the ethanol flavor.
 
Chris
Chris,
This gets a 10/10 for price to quality ratio. My favorite table bourbon for the money. Where else can you find a 10 year old single barrel bottle in bond bourbon for this price? This should be on everyone's shelf who likes whiskey.
 
Tommy
Tommy,
Very flavorful on ice or neat.
 
Charles
Charles,
Very solid, and a great value at $33. Not many products can wow you in this price range, but Henry McKenna 10 year is one of them. At this price, its affordable to have a bottle on hand in your bar at all times.
 
Bianca
Bianca,
Notes of peanut butter! Yum!
 
Anthony
Anthony,
A great value. Smooth but flavorful. Definitely more of an easy sipping whiskey than you would expect from a 100 proof bottle.
 
Jacob
Jacob,
I enjoyed how simple it was, good flavor, everything I expect out of a bourbon that you have neat at the end of a long day.
 
Tom
Tom,
A nice surprise. A heavy nose of cinnamon and perhaps vanilla, with the taste to back it up. A strong spicy finish that gives way to a butter scotch fruit after taste. Very nice.
 
Jeremy
Jeremy,
One of the best kept secrets in bourbon. Great bib. Full of flavor. Nice long finish. Heaven hill knows how to do it.
 
Chris
Chris,

Anthony
Anthony,
nose:vanilla, oak, rye spice palate:slightly oily, cinnamon finish: oak, spicy, vanilla, long finish overall: good strength at 100 proof but missing a lot of the depth associated with aged whiskey

Great nose of vanilla and barley. Zesty palate with complexity and a bit of a bite. Great value for a 100% proof bourbon that a scotch drinker would enjoy.
