125: Tasting Through A Unique Lineup of Bulleit Bourbon

Jake and Scott catch up about life and bourbon as they sip through 3 different Bulleit Bourbons. Scott recently had the opportunity to help a local store, Bottles Unlimited in New Albany, IN select a barrel of 11 year old Bulleit. And thanks to some help from Bottles Unlimited, we were able to secure two more limited bottlings of Bulleit to taste them side-by-side with this 11 year old store pick called "Quarantine Breakout". The barrel is available now at Bottles Unlimited and we recommend you heading there to grab a bottle before it's gone.  Big thank you to Kyle Denson from Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits and Diageo for the lineup.

Cheers,Scott, Jake, & MichaelBourbon Lens   About Bulleit Single Barrel Bourbon - "Quarantine Breakout" Private Selection from Bottles Unlimited New Albany Indiana: An 11 year old, 104 proof bourbon that was selected by a team of friends of Bottles Unlimited, including Lora, Kyle, Clayton, and Scott from Bourbon Lens on February 4, 2021. Selected from 6 blind samples, this barrel was the clear winner amongst the group and has a unique taste profile that is sweet with a bit of funk. This bourbon reminded us of the Kentucky State Fair; fried dough, sweet and savory notes, sweet corn, and a little bit of spice. It's an easy drinker that is sure to impress those seeking something out of the ordinary from Bulleit. About Bulleit Bourbon 10 Year Old: Aged in charred American white oak, select Bulleit Bourbon barrels were set aside to age for 10 years. The result is a special expression of Bulleit that provides a rich, deep, incredibly smooth sipping experience. About Bulleit Blenders' Select Bourbon: Limited-edition 100 proof bourbon that selectively mingles three of the ten distillates used in our flagship Bulleit Bourbon. These three distillates are each aged for a minimum of nine years. Hand-selected from more than 100 distinct liquids, this blend was painstakingly crafted by our blender Eboni Major to achieve a unique taste profile that is distinctly Bulleit in character.
