Kings County Distillery is New York City’s premier craft distillery and among the most acclaimed small distilleries in the United States. They only distill whiskey for their label and never sell whiskey made from any other source.
Kings County represents:
• A true craft spirit from grain to glass
• Authentic, non traditional whiskeys
• A focus on integrity and transparency
• Sourcing organic, local, or non-GMO grains
• Distilling for quality over yield using true pot stills
• A radical shift in style from commercial whiskey
This is of the most interesting and complex barrel picks I’ve ever tasted from King’s County. While all their offerings are top quality I found this pick to have a mysterious brightness about it. I thought it would perfect to release the end of Summer! Incredibly aromatic, notes of creme brulee, white cherry, orange honey and white honey. Very hard to notice it’s 64% ABV, silky texture, salty-mineral finish. More notes tomorrow. I’m going sit sea side with this one tonight-Eileen
Call and pay over the phone to purchase. If the phone keeps ringing I am just on the other line.
Let’s go!
