Blade And Bow Bourbon Whiskey
Blade And Bow Bourbon Whiskey
Blade and Bow Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey uses a unique Solera System aging process to preserve the heritage of Stitzel-Weller Distillery. Uncommon in the bourbon industry, this tiered blending method creates a complex liquid by using the best of both the older and newer distillates. This spirit is aged in charred American white oak barrels and begins with a nose of fresh fruit, followed by hints of dried apricot, ripe pear, and sweet roasted grain on the palate. The finish includes notes of charred oak and warm winter spices. Each bottle is adorned with one of five collectible keys, representing the components of crafting bourbon - grains, yeast, fermentation, distillation, and aging - which have grown to symbolize the Southern traditions of hospitality, warmth, and enjoying the finer things in life. This bourbon is best enjoyed straight, either neat or on the rocks. Includes one 91 proof 750 mL bottle of Blade and Bow Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Please drink responsibly.

Why Gifted Pour recommends it
For the bourbon lover who values a story as much as the pour, this Kentucky Straight Bourbon makes a considered gift. It is aged using a Solera System, a tiered blending method uncommon in bourbon that draws on both older and newer distillates, and it pays homage to the heritage of the Stitzel-Weller Distillery. In the glass, fresh fruit leads on the nose, followed by dried apricot, ripe pear and sweet roasted grain on the palate, with charred oak and warm winter spices lingering on the finish. At 91 proof, it has enough presence to reward sipping neat while staying easygoing over ice. Each bottle carries one of five collectible keys representing grains, yeast, fermentation, distillation and aging, a detail that turns the bottle into a keepsake and a natural conversation starter. It earned a Double Gold Medal at the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, adding weight to a promotion, housewarming or Father's Day gift. Add a charcuterie board and let the recipient pour slowly.
