Bourbon, Daviess County, KY

89pts Whiskey Advocate

A revival brand from Lux Row Distillers' owner Luxco, and part of a trio that also features a cabernet cask-finished bourbon and another finished in new toasted French oak casks. This one is herbal and earthy on the nose, with a light note of citrus. The palate is delicate, with flavors of vanilla cream, cola, and raspberry. Well-balanced and smooth on the finish, ending with pleasant notes of spice.

With a heritage dating back to 1874, Daviess County Distilling Company was one of the first great bourbon distilleries of Kentucky. It also paved the way for more than a dozen other distilleries that opened in Daviess County pre-Prohibition.

Now, in honor of the county’s rich history, they are reintroducing Daviess County Bourbon to the world. Featuring a unique blend of ryed and wheated mashbills, it’s a masterpiece unmatched in both flavor and heritage.
