- Description
- Kings County's Peated Bourbon represents a rare hybrid: a bourbon mashbill incorporating peat-smoked malted barley, aged at least two years in new barrels, marking the first peated bourbon released commercially. The combination yields a whiskey where bourbon's characteristic vanilla and oak sweetness meet distinctive peat smoke and spice, creating a bridge between American and Scottish traditions. This experimental spirit suits adventurous drinkers and those curious about how peat translates beyond its Scottish home.
