Henry McKenna 10 Year

The only extra-aged Bottled-in-Bond Single Barrel Bourbon in the world, indicating it meets exacting U.S. government standards for age and proof. Aged for ten years.

In 1837, a young man from Ireland known for his remarkable whiskey-making skills, came to America with his family’s whiskey recipe that had been passed down for generations. Young Mr. McKenna settled in Kentucky and discovered the uniquely American drink known as Bourbon. McKenna instantly took a liking to Kentucky whiskey and set out to create a better Bourbon using his family’s recipe. To ensure the highest quality, he insisted that his Bourbon age in oak barrels before bottling. From this process, highly unusual for the time, emerged a remarkably smooth Bourbon boasting a distinctive character. As one of the only extra-aged Bottled-in-Bond Single Barrel Bourbons, Henry McKenna Single Barrel satisfies those looking for a real whiskey with real history. The super-premium status is conveyed through new packaging. The front label contains handwritten authentication of the barrel number and the barreled on date. It also emphasizes the Bottled-In-Bond designation and the 10 year age statement.

Nose: Aroma of warm spices, smoke and burnt caramel. Notes of chewy leather, chili peppers and habanero.

Palate: Subtle touches of dried fruits, vanilla and cinnamon.

Finish: Warm and lush, with bold notes of roasted corn, cloves and woody spices.

Larceny Small Batch Bourbon

A blend of six to twelve year old bourbon, this whiskey pays homage to Pappy Van Winkle’s original bourbon recipe.

The famous bourbon brand Old Fitzgerald was named for John E. Fitzgerald, who according to a family biography of Pappy Van Winkle may have been a rather more colorful character than we imagine!

Fitzgerald, it seems, was a bonded treasury agent, one of the only people to carry keys to the storage warehouses. Apparently he also had a taste for the very finest bourbons and didn’t mind helping himself! It was this infamous character with the fine palate who was immortalised by the brand back in the 1880s.

Nose: Warm bread, toffee, and a dash of butterscotch.

Palate: Rich with caramel, orange blossom honey, and bread pudding.

Finish: Long, layered, and savory.

Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon

The award-winning Bourbon that started it all. Elijah Craig Small Batch owes its distinctive warm spice & subtle smoke flavor to Level 3 charred oak barrels. Handcrafted by Master Distillers, it’s a favorite of bourbon connoisseurs and casual whiskey fans alike. This no age statement bourbon is created from spirit aged between eight and 12 years old. Notes of nuts, vanilla, coconut, dark fruit and caramel.

Nose: Vanilla, orange zest, toffee, and a dash of mint.

Palate: Rich with wood spice, nutmeg, and cinnamon toast.

Finish: Deeply layered and complex with a hint of mint at the end.
