King of Kentucky 12 Year Small Batch is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey produced by Brown-Forman under the historic King of Kentucky label, revived after more than 90 years. It is a small-batch release blending select barrels aged around 12-18 years, drawn from a mash bill of roughly 75% corn, 15% rye, and 10% malted barley, bottled at barrel/high proof (around 105 proof for early batches). Expect notes of caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, dark honey, and baking spice, with a long, warming finish.
