Lucky Seven The Holiday Toast is a limited, seasonal double-oaked Kentucky straight bourbon from Lucky Seven Spirits of Shelbyville, Kentucky. This bottle is from single barrel #14, bottled at cask strength, 119.4 proof (59.7% ABV).
The bourbon is distilled in Kentucky and aged first in new charred oak barrels, then re-barreled and finished in new toasted oak barrels. The toasted finish caramelises the sugars in the wood and adds a festive layer of sweetness and spice.
Expect toasted oak, caramelised sugar and holiday spices on the nose, with cinnamon, mulled cider and baking spice on the palate, a bourbon made for winter evenings and celebrations.
Single barrel releases of The Holiday Toast are limited and sell out quickly each season.
Bourbon 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. Those rules give bourbon its characteristic sweetness, with caramel and vanilla drawn from the charred barrels.
