It is bottled at 112.8 proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Discovery series showcases Bardstown Bourbon Company's skill at blending, and 2026 marks its move from numbered batches to an annual release. The blend brings together a 10-year-old Indiana bourbon (55%), an 11-year-old Kentucky bourbon (25%) and a 7-year-old Kentucky bourbon (20%). Garryana, or Oregon white oak, is a rare Pacific Northwest oak prized for its spicy, aromatic character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose brings toasted oak, burnt sugar and baked apple cobbler. On the palate come dried cherry, cinnamon bark and caramelised fruit, and the finish is long and warm, with toasted oak and the distinctive Garryana spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bottle's fiery orange label makes it a striking gift for bourbon collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd a few drops of water to open up the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak containers, and straight bourbon must be aged at least two years.
