Kings County Distillery Peated Bourbon

Our Peated Bourbon has been a huge favorite in our tasting room, and now we finally have enough to release to stores. Bon Appetit included this in their March issue in a roundup of the best craft spirits, and it took home a DOUBLE GOLD medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition as one of the best bourbons available, craft or otherwise. What is Peated Bourbon? It’s bourbon whiskey that conforms to the American requirements but is made with malted barley that has been exposed to peat smoke, a practice more common in Scotch whiskies. So it’s a scotch-like bourbon, flavorful and robust from having aged in a new barrel, with an added light smoky finish reminiscent of single-malt. As far as we know, this is the world's only peated bourbon and will appeal to the adventurous whiskey traveler who has tried everything--except this.
