Orphan Barrel Fanged Pursuit 17 Year Bourbon

Picture this: somewhere deep in Kentucky’s bourbon heartland, a lone bobcat prowls through moonlit cornfields. That’s the spirit of Orphan Barrel Fanged Pursuit 17-Year Bourbon—a rare and untamed gem rescued from the back of forgotten rickhouses and bottled for those who appreciate whiskey with a story.

This 17-year-old masterpiece hails from the legendary Barton Brands and Early Times Distilling Companies, along the iconic Bourbon Trail. Aged to perfection in charred American oak barrels, Fanged Pursuit teases the nose with rich aromas of vanilla, red cherries, and honey. On the palate, it’s an intricate dance of toasted oak, orchard fruits, and a warm kick of spice, all balanced with the finesse that only time can bestow. The finish is long and satisfying, with a whisper of the wild Kentucky countryside lingering on the tongue.

Robert Parker would probably raise a single eyebrow in approval at this one. Why? Because Fanged Pursuit isn’t just a bourbon—it’s an adventure in a bottle, capturing the essence of Kentucky’s untamed spirit. Perfect for sipping neat or sparking lively debates with fellow whiskey snobs about what makes a bourbon truly legendary.

But here’s the catch: like the bobcat it embodies, once Orphan Barrel Fanged Pursuit slips away, it’s gone forever. So grab your bottle before this rare beast disappears into the night.
