The palate is layered and full-bodied, balancing sweet, spicy, and oak-driven flavors with precision, leading to a long, warming finish that emphasizes complexity and refinement. Each expression is crafted to highlight both tradition and creativity, demonstrating Bardstown Bourbon Co’s dedication to innovation while respecting classic bourbon heritage.

It appeals to collectors, connoisseurs, and adventurous bourbon drinkers alike, offering a compelling exploration of flavor, craftsmanship, and the limitless potential of small-batch American whiskey.
Bardstown Discovery Series #7 is a carefully constructed blend that brings together aged bourbons and corn whiskey from Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, and Ontario, some as old as seventeen years. Bottled at 114.5 proof, it opens with a nose of walnut and brown sugar lifted by floral tones and bright tangerine. On the palate it is rich and layered, showing baked Honeycrisp apple, dark chocolate, rye spice, and a firm oak presence wrapped in baking spices and peppercorn. The texture is bold yet refined, with depth coming from the older components. The finish is long, warm, and structured, carrying lingering spice, caramel, and light brown sugar that fade slowly with a balanced oak undertone.
For a starter, it pairs beautifully with smoked meats or spiced nuts that echo its walnut and pepper notes. As a main course it shines alongside grilled pork chops glazed with cracked pepper or roasted duck served with a fruit compote, where its apple and citrus character amplifies the dish. Strong cheeses such as aged gouda, manchego, or blue cheese bring out the richness and spice of the whiskey. For dessert, it is best with dark chocolate cake, apple pie with vanilla ice cream, or an orange marmalade tart, each of which complements the bourbon’s interplay of fruit, spice, and caramel.
