Bardstown Discovery Series Bourbon #7 is a meticulously crafted small-batch bourbon from Kentucky, showcasing the innovation and craftsmanship of Bardstown Bourbon Company. Part of the limited Discovery Series, this expression emphasizes bold flavors, complexity, and a balance between traditional bourbon character and experimental cask influence.
On the nose, Discovery Series Bourbon #7 reveals rich aromas of caramel, toasted oak, vanilla bean, and dark brown sugar, layered with subtle hints of spice, cocoa, and dried fruit. The palate is full-bodied and nuanced, offering a harmony of sweet caramel, warm baking spices, gentle smoke, and a touch of oak tannins, leading to a long, smooth finish that highlights both depth and elegance. Its amber-golden color reflects careful barrel selection and aging, enhancing its visual appeal and richness.
Bardstown Discovery Series Bourbon #7 is ideal for sipping neat, over ice, or in premium cocktails that deserve a complex and flavorful bourbon base. It embodies the company’s dedication to quality, innovation, and the art of American whiskey-making, offering a memorable experience for bourbon enthusiasts seeking bold yet refined character.
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.
