Tasting notes
The Wiseman Bourbon from Kentucky Owl is the perfect blend of four Kentucky straight bourbons. Caramel, allspice, and citrus notes fill the nose. These lead to similar tastes across the tongue, as the allspice fades, the longer finish presents with caramel and hints of oak.

Key characteristics
About this whisky
Kentucky Owl is a renowned producer of premium bourbon whiskey, and their Wiseman Bourbon is a true testament to their expertise in the craft. The history of Kentucky Owl dates back to the late 1800s, when Charles Mortimer Dedman began producing small batches of bourbon in his backyard. The brand was later revived by his great-great-grandson, Dixon Dedman, who has since become a master blender and the face of the brand.
The Wiseman Bourbon is a blend of carefully selected barrels of bourbon, aged between 4 and 15 years. The result is a complex and rich whiskey, with notes of vanilla, caramel, and oak. The nose is sweet and inviting, with hints of honey and spice. On the palate, the Wiseman Bourbon is smooth and velvety, with a long and satisfying finish.
Kentucky Owl takes great pride in their production process, which involves sourcing the best possible ingredients and using traditional methods to create their bourbon. The grains used in the mash bill are carefully selected and milled on site, before being cooked and fermented in open vats. The resulting mash is then distilled in copper pot stills, before being aged in charred oak barrels.
Overall, the Wiseman Bourbon is a true masterpiece of bourbon whiskey, and a testament to the dedication and expertise of the team at Kentucky Owl. Whether enjoyed neat or in a classic cocktail, this bourbon is sure to impress even the most discerning whiskey connoisseur.
