Bond & Lillard - Batch 2 Whiskey Barons - 375 ML
The Whiskey Barons Collection is a range of bourbons produced by Campari at their Wild Turkey distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. The series features several bottles, all named after various pre-Prohibition brands.
Bond and Lillard were two distillers who set up a distillery not far from where the Wild Turkey site now sits. They established it in 1820 and began selling Bond & Lillard branded bourbon in the 1860s. Their bourbon won the Grand Prize at the 1904 St Louis World Fair, where a gold medal was also awarded for the first time to a certain Mr Jack Daniel.
Batch 2 is aged a minimum of seven years for light amber color and bright, floral notes. Aromas of vanilla cream, green apple, and orange zest followed by more notes of green apple on the palate with baking spices, toasted oak, and a hint of mint. Finishes dry with oak and spice.
