Kentucky Owl Whiskey

A bourbon whose name comes from an owl said to have kept watch over the old warehouses. Kentucky Owl was founded in 1879 by Colonel J. R. Wathen and was, in its day, one of the most decorated whiskeys in the US, before Prohibition shut the operation down. The brand was revived decades later and is today known for its rare, non-standardised batches.

About Kentucky Owl Whiskey

Kentucky Owl is an American bourbon and rye whiskey series, known for its small, rare batches and a name with roots dating back to the 1800s. For the newcomer, Kentucky Owl is a chance to meet bourbon without a fixed release rhythm, where every batch is unique. For the collector, that very unpredictability is the core of the brand's appeal - you can't just reorder the same thing, which has made Kentucky Owl one of the most chased names among American whiskey collectors.

History & background

The name dates back to founder Colonel J. R. Wathen's era in 1879, when an owl reportedly kept watch over the warehouses. The brand lay dormant for decades before being revived in 2014 and later acquired by Stoli Group, its current owner.

Production & style

The whiskey is composed of selected casks and often released in very limited batches without a fixed annual schedule.

Signature style

Full-Bodied, Complex, Spiced
