Rolling Fork Rolls Out Bourbon de Luxe Vintage Series
Rolling Fork Spirits announced a third release of its small batch bourbon, Bourbon de Luxe. Batch 3 of Bourbon de Luxe is the first release in the Bourbon de Luxe Vintage series, which will feature ultra-aged bourbons in limited quantities.
“When we revived the brand, our guiding principle was high quality Kentucky bourbon meant to be enjoyed with good friends,” Rolling Fork Co-Founder Turner Wathen said in a news release. “The strong reception to our early releases definitely gave us the confidence to expand the product line a little bit when the right bourbon came our way.”
Rolling Fork selected four barrels of sixteen-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon distilled in Frankfort, Ky., for the third batch of Bourbon de Luxe. It is bottled at cask-strength (126.1 proof).
“When the 16-year-old bourbon became available to us, our first thought was that it would be really fun to match the old Prohibition label of Bourbon de Luxe,” Rolling Fork Co-Founder Jordan Morris said. “However, we wanted to make sure the quality of the bourbon would be memorable for customers, so we went and tasted through the entire lot of available barrels to find the perfect four barrels for the profile we love in older whiskey.”
The third release of Bourbon de Luxe is limited to under 500 bottles and is available April 25 exclusively on Seelbachs.com for $299.
