The 10 year old version of Bulleit Bourbon. The prolonged ageing brings more richness to the woody and spicy notes. The aromatic palette is marked by spicy flavours (nutmeg, cinnamon, pepper, cloves), followed by dried fruit flavours (apricots, peaches, plums), chocolate with hazelnuts and caramelised almonds (Toblerone) and burnt wood (maple, oak, coconut) - honey.

The House
The Bourbon brand, which is now widely recognised by its slanted, colourful labels, was only created in 1987. Thomas E. Bulleit, a promising young lawyer, decided to leave the courtroom and follow in the footsteps of his great-great-grandfather: Augustus Bulleit. The Frenchman, who had moved to the United States, worked as a tavern keeper in Louisville in the 1830s. There he created a Bourbon with a high rye content for his regulars, with a strong, round, spicy and full-bodied character. Legend has it that Augustus Bulleit disappeared overnight, without a trace, while transporting barrels. The mystery remains today, just as the origin of Bulleit-aged spirits has long remained a mystery. Many rumours circulated on this subject, with a strong suspicion on the part of Four Roses. These rumours have ceased since 2017 and the opening of a new state-of-the-art facility in Shelbyville, Kentucky, which combines a distillery and a visitor centre.
