Bardstown Bourbon Company Founders Series Bourbon Whiskey is a collaborative release from Bardstown Bourbon Company, one of Kentucky’s most innovative distilleries. Known for its “fusion” and “collaboration” lines, Bardstown pushes the boundaries of traditional bourbon while honoring craftsmanship, and the Founders Series highlights special partnerships with respected figures in the whiskey world. Each release under this label reflects a unique vision, blending Bardstown’s modern techniques with the legacy and expertise of its collaborators.

Made with carefully selected mash bills and aged in premium oak barrels, the Founders Series delivers a bourbon that is both complex and approachable. In the glass, it shows a rich amber hue. The nose often opens with inviting aromas of vanilla, baking spice, and toasted oak, while the palate carries layers of caramel, honey, dark fruit, and subtle peppery warmth. The finish is long, smooth, and balanced, showcasing the quality expected from a premium Kentucky bourbon.

This series is designed for sipping neat or with a splash of water to explore its depth, but it can also elevate classic bourbon cocktails like the Old Fashioned or Manhattan. With its blend of heritage, innovation, and collaboration, the Founders Series stands as a testament to Bardstown Bourbon Company’s reputation as the “Napa Valley of Bourbon.”
