About this bottle

In 2022, Castle & Key Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, introduced its initial bourbon release since the restoration of the Old Taylor Distillery in 2014. This bourbon, crafted from a mash bill of 73% white corn, 10% rye, and 17% malted barley, aged for four years and was bottled at 48.5% ABV without chill-filtration. Batch 6 comprises 60 barrels (SRP $50).

It's undeniable that Castle and Key is producing fantastic products for their cost. I enjoy trying their special releases, but their standard offerings are rich, full-bodied choices that rival brands like Blade and Bow, Eagle Rare, and Freeland Spirits. This small batch is well-balanced with a pleasant warmth in all the right places. Abundant sweetness is enhanced by mild bitter tannins and baking spices. The finish is substantial with a lasting toasty note. When available, I intend to keep this as a regular purchase alongside C and K's Restoration Rye.
