First let’s hit the bourbon then the controversy….
This pick was bestowed to Chasing Bourbon by our good friend Nick from Portland, Oregon.
King’s County has long been known for the 80/20 mashbill, UK Barley, pot stills, and small barrel format.
At our visit they are switching from small barrel format to the traditional 53gal large barrel and I found them to be missing the typical King’s Co profile and thus was going to pass.
They asked if we’d be up for a blend over a single barrel and my answer was heck yeah!
Off to their blending lab we went to be the first private group let loose to create our own blend.
We went off typical 80/20 by adding rye to the blend and found it made a bourbon that I really enjoyed.
The Controversy PSA- I’m not a political person at all. I literally am not involved in the political climate at all.
A request was made from my audience for a controversial sticker. This sticker was suggested buy one of the people integral in the creation of the blend.
This was intended as satire…not a show of support or hate. I’ve gotten equal outrage from people interpreting that this sticker means I support him as much as the outrage that I must hate him.
In the end this resulted in King’s County making a social post claiming to “disavow” this bottle 🤣 😂
