Cream Of Kentucky Cask Strength Bourbon

Cream of Kentucky Cask Strength Bourbon is a striking homage to a rich legacy that dates back to 1888. Originally introduced by I. Trager & Co. of Cincinnati, Ohio, this esteemed brand was later acquired by the iconic Schenley Company and reintroduced in 1934, just after Prohibition. During the 1930s and 1940s, Cream of Kentucky emerged as a top-tier bourbon, with its reputation bolstered by artwork from the renowned Norman Rockwell.

The Summer 2024 release of Cream of Kentucky Cask Strength Bourbon is a testament to both historical reverence and modern mastery. Crafted under the expert guidance of Master Distiller Jim Rutledge, this cask strength expression represents the peak of bourbon craftsmanship. It delivers the bold, “double-rich” flavor profile that has become a hallmark of the Cream of Kentucky brand, ensuring a robust and authentic bourbon experience.

This special release captures the essence of Cream of Kentucky's storied past while embracing contemporary techniques to enhance its distinctive character. Bottled at cask strength, it offers a powerful and intense flavor profile that aficionados will appreciate. The result is a bourbon with a complex and nuanced taste, showcasing deep layers of caramel, vanilla, and oak, all amplified by the higher proof. The full-bodied richness and depth of this expression make it a standout choice for those who value both tradition and exceptional quality.

Cream of Kentucky Cask Strength Bourbon isn’t just a drink; it’s a journey through time, honoring a legendary brand with every sip.
