Blowhard 26 Year Old Kentucky Bourbon 750ml

Bottle size

For a premium quaff that insists on being enjoyed slowly, pour yourself a glass of Orphan Barrel Blowhard 26 year old Kentucky Bourbon. A richly endowed bourbon from the prolific line of offerings under the Diageo family of brands, this wonderfully crafted bourbon was distilled at the Bernheim distillery and was first released in 2014. Aged for 26 years with a finished barrel strength of 45% ABV (90-proof), Blowhard is composed of a mash bill containing 86% corn, 8% malted barley, and 6% rye. On the nose are layers of dried leather, oak, and sweetly burned sugar over cues of raisins dipped in orange peelings and cherries. The palate is boldly oaky with notes of dried cherries and dark melted chocolate.…

About the brand

Designed to uncover some of the whiskey world's rarest hidden treasures, Orphan Barrel is the brainchild of world-renowned liquor magnate Diageo. A truly unique project that sources 'forgotten' or 'abandoned' batches and barrels that distilleries may have left behind or not released for production, Orphan Barrel locates ultra-aged American whiskeys from some of the most famous distilleries around the USA and reinvents their release. Whether it's the spectacular Lost Prophet 22 Year Old, originally distilled at George T. Stagg Distillery, or the scintillating Rhetoric 23 Year Old, which was partially matured at the old Stitzel-Weller Distillery, Orphan Barrel unearths some of the most beautiful and complex 'orphaned' bourbon whiskeys that the United States has to offer, giving them new homes where they can be enjoyed rather than lost in time.

Do whatever it takes not to let the value fool you. It's acceptable however most likely over matured. Bunches of tannic wood notes in the completion that won't disappear. Simple to drink however.

Difficult to legitimize the sticker price on this one however by a long shot the most established whiskey I've had the joy of tasting. Great flavor yet not certain I'll be purchasing this container.
