Description

Kentucky Owl is a renowned producer of fine spirits, and their expression known as The Wiseman is a true testament to their expertise and dedication to craft. This particular offering is a Straight Rye whiskey, a style that has gained immense popularity in recent years due to its bold and robust flavor profile.

The history of Kentucky Owl dates back to the late 1800s when it was founded by C.M. Dedman, a pharmacist turned distiller. Dedman's passion for creating exceptional spirits led him to establish a distillery in Kentucky, a region known for its rich tradition of whiskey production. Over the years, Kentucky Owl gained a reputation for producing some of the finest whiskeys in the country, and The Wiseman is a shining example of their commitment to quality.

The production process of The Wiseman begins with carefully selected rye grains, which are sourced from local farms in Kentucky. These grains are then milled and combined with water to create a mash, which is fermented using a proprietary yeast strain. The fermentation process allows the natural sugars in the grains to convert into alcohol, resulting in a flavorful and aromatic base for the whiskey.

Once fermentation is complete, the mash is distilled in traditional copper pot stills, a method that has been used for centuries to produce high-quality spirits. The distillation process involves heating the mash to separate the alcohol from the impurities, resulting in a clear and pure distillate known as "new make" spirit. This spirit is then aged in charred oak barrels, where it undergoes a transformative maturation process.

The aging process is a crucial step in the production of The Wiseman, as it allows the whiskey to develop its unique character and flavor profile. The barrels used for aging are carefully selected to impart specific flavors and aromas to the spirit. The Wiseman is aged for a minimum of six years, allowing it to develop a rich and complex taste that is both smooth and full-bodied.

The flavor profile of The Wiseman is characterized by notes of caramel, vanilla, and spice, with a hint of oak and a lingering warmth on the palate. The rye content in this whiskey adds a distinct peppery kick, making it a favorite among whiskey enthusiasts who appreciate a bold and flavorful spirit.
