Overview

Born in Kansas City's historic Rieger Distillery, this straight bourbon was blended to mark a Jayhawks title run — hand-selected barrels drawn from some of the distillery's earliest distillations, dating back to 2016. The mash bill leans classic: corn, rye, and malted barley, built to balance sweet caramel warmth against a spicy rye backbone. Bottled at 86 proof, it's a KC original worth pouring for game day or any night worth toasting a win.
Tasting notes

Aromas of peanut shells, green apple, and tart red fruits upfront. Lightly toasted cedar and mild tobacco add nuance and complexity. Flavors on the pallet are sweeter than the aromas, led by roasted peanuts, caramel, and cashew. A rich, oily, and buttery texture with flavors of cornbread, buttered popcorn, cigar smoke, and caramel apple follow. The finish highlights some of the more complex spices including caraway, cinnamon, and hints of vanilla and honey-cinnamon.
