Explore the Artistry of Blue Run Spirits Trifecta Blend: Blue Run Spirits Trifecta Kentucky Straight Bourbon is a meticulously crafted blend of three distinct bourbons, each contributing to a unique and harmonious flavor profile. Established in 2020 under the guidance of Jim Rutledge, the former master distiller at Four Roses, Blue Run Spirits aims to redefine bourbon for a new generation of enthusiasts.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: The Trifecta blend opens with a delightful aroma of caramel, vanilla, cinnamon spice, and nutmeg. A deeper inhalation reveals notes of vanilla, cedar, and oak, adding to its complexity.
Palate: The palate is greeted with an oily texture that is surprisingly light. Initial flavors of apple pie filling and caramel give way to rye spice, figs, and floral undertones. The back palate is dominated by oak tannins, clove, and white pepper, creating a well-rounded taste experience.
Finish: The finish of the Trifecta is bold and expansive, featuring charred oak, figs, apples, and tobacco. It starts subtly and grows in intensity, leaving a lasting impression.
A Blend of Excellence: The Trifecta blend is composed of 32% 9-year-old bourbon (78% Corn, 10% Rye, 12% Malted Barley), 22% 8-year-old bourbon (75% Corn, 21% Rye, 4% Malted Barley), and 46% 6-year-old bourbon (78% Corn, 12% Rye, 10% Malted Barley). This combination results in a bourbon that is both balanced and complex.
Perfect for Bourbon Aficionados: Packaged at cask strength, this bourbon is ideal for those who appreciate the unadulterated flavors of a high-proof whiskey. It's a superb choice for sipping neat or with a splash of water to open up its flavors.
A Luxurious Addition to Any Collection: With its super-premium positioning and distinctive taste profile, Blue Run Spirits Trifecta Kentucky Straight Bourbon is a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs. Its blend of aged bourbons makes it a unique and sought-after bottle in the world of fine spirits.
