When the principles of Bourbon and Japanese Whisky meet in an unexpected perfection.
The original Kentucky Owl Whiskey was made by Charles Mortimer Dedman in the late 1800s. After every drop of this "Wise Man’s Whiskey" in inventory was, ahem… "confiscated" by federal agents under mysterious circumstances at the start of Prohibition, the C.M. Dedman Distillery faded into history. But just a few years ago his great-great-grandson — Dixon Dedman — revived the brand, creating the Kentucky Owl Bourbons and Ryes as small batch, super-premium Spirit blends.
Kentucky Owl is developing a cult-like following of fans who wait eagerly for each release. And no wonder… these things are powerful examples of quality and passion for the Spirits.
With this special, limited-edition release they’ve created a Spirit that’s achieved the impossible – bring to the table everything the Bourbon drinker and Japanese Whisky lover are looking for. A blend of 4-, 5-, 6- and 13-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbons, it comes from a variety of mashbills including corn, rye, wheat and malted barley. So, how did they do it?
A collaboration between Kentucky Owl Master Blender John Rhea, and Yusuke Yahisa of Japanese distillery Nagahama, Rhea and Yahisa worked together. Rhea selected four different formulations and sent them to Japan. Yahisa evaluated them and then created different blends to incorporate his signature Japanese Whisky style into the blend. The final result? Unprecedented perfection.
