Clocking in at 116-128 proof depending on the batch, Kings County Barrel Strength Bourbon is pulled from older barrels than their flagship bourbon, aged anywhere from two to almost five+ years. Many enthusiasts prefer whiskey straight from the barrel, which allows the drinker to add ice or water to taste. Smooth and bold, this is Kings County's most flavorful and intense whiskey. Wine and Spirits magazine awarded it Best Bourbon of 2015.
