Castle & Key Small Batch 2024 Batch 2 revives the heritage of Kentucky bourbon. Crafted at the historic Castle & Key Distillery, once home to Colonel E.H. Taylor’s Old Taylor Distillery, this release combines tradition with modern precision. Each batch is carefully blended to highlight the best of Kentucky straight bourbon, delivering a rich, layered flavor with balanced spice, fruit, and oak.
On the palate, you’ll notice caramel and vanilla upfront, followed by honeyed nuts, dried fruit, and warm baking spices. Toasted oak and a hint of citrus add depth, creating a full-bodied, satisfying experience. The aroma is inviting, with brown sugar, toasted almonds, dark cherries, and subtle floral and citrus notes enhancing the tasting journey.
Despite its bold flavors, this bourbon finishes smooth. Vanilla, caramelized sugar, and oak linger without overpowering. Enjoy it neat, with a splash of water, or over a large ice cube. It also elevates cocktails like Old Fashioneds or Manhattans and pairs beautifully with smoked meats, aged cheeses, or rich desserts.
Perfect for enthusiasts who value small-batch craftsmanship and a balanced, complex bourbon.
