How many years is Blade and Bow aged?

Blade and Bow’s Kentucky Straight Bourbon is aged for 22 years. This particular bourbon is released annually in September, just in time for National Bourbon Heritage Month. As a bourbon enthusiast, I always look forward to this time of year when Blade and Bow pays homage to the craftsmanship, history, and tradition that Stitzel-Weller Distillery represents to the bourbon industry.

The 22-year aging process is what sets Blade and Bow apart from many other bourbons on the market. It takes patience, skill, and careful monitoring to create a bourbon that has been aged for such a significant amount of time. The result is a whiskey that is smooth, complex, and full of depth.

I remember the first time I tried Blade and Bow’s 22-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon. The aroma was enticing, with notes of oak, caramel, and a hint of vanilla. As I took my first sip, I was immediately struck by the smoothness and richness of the bourbon. The flavors danced on my palate, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice.

The aging process for Blade and Bow’s 22-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon takes place in charred white oak barrels. These barrels impart flavors and characteristics to the whiskey over time, allowing it to develop its unique profile. Each year, as the bourbon ages, it takes on new complexities and nuances, making each release a special and highly anticipated event.

To celebrate National Bourbon Heritage Month, Blade and Bow invites bourbon enthusiasts to raise a glass and appreciate the artistry and tradition that goes into creating their 22-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon. It’s a time to reflect on the rich history of bourbon making in Kentucky and to savor the craftsmanship that goes into each bottle.
