Saddle Up for A Sip of Americana: Discover Brad Paisley Bourbon
Yeehaw! Buckle up, whiskey-to-new-heights/” title=”Bulleit's 12-Year-Old Rye Takes Whiskey to New Heights”>bourbon aficionados, and music lovers, as we embark on an open-road adventure on the bourbon highway. Picture this: a charismatic country music star, a dash of American spirit, and barrels of whiskey singing with flavor—it’s not a new country hit; it’s the latest sensation in the bourbon sphere, the Brad Paisley Bourbon.
The High Notes of American Highway Reserve Route 2
It’s curtain time, and taking center stage is none other than the American Highway Reserve Route 2. Imagine a blend as harmonious as the twang of a guitar—this bourbon is that duet, hitting all the right notes. A trio of mashbills, including 12- and 4-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbons laced with an 8-year-old bourbon sourced from Georgia, come together in a medley that has seen more miles than a honky-tonk band on tour.
Every pour tells a tale, and this bourbon spun its story aboard a rolling rickhouse, touring the country as Brad Paisley serenaded summer crowds. “Bourbon is like a song,” muses Brad, the maestro himself. “The richer the journey, the deeper the story—and brother, this batch has been around the block!”
Partners in ‘Spirited’ Crime: Bardstown Bourbon Company
Ah, but an artist needs a muse, and for Brad, that’s where the legendary Bardstown Bourbon Company enters the saloon. This partnership isn’t your run-of-the-mill celebrity endorsement; Brad’s got his hands in the mash, the aging, heck—the man’s as knee-deep in whiskey as he is in platinum records. Together with Dan Callaway, VP of New Product Development, they’re the whiskey world’s dynamic duo.
Dan tips his hat to Brad, saying, “He’s not just a name on a label—he really gets whiskey, making this collaboration as smooth as the bourbon itself.”
Tasting Notes: A Symphony with Every Sip
Take a whiff, and you’re lost in a reverie of charred oak and leather, a breezy echo of baked apple, and almond breezing through. Tantalize your taste buds with toffee and a hint of cinnamon leading the charge, culminating in a complex finish as satisfying as hitting the open road with no destination in mind.
Fancy some numbers? The American Highway Route 2 weighs in at a rock-solid 98 proof and rolls out at a comfy $99.99 SRP. Better gas up the pickup, though—only about 10,000 cases are speeding off to stores, and you can bet your boots bourbon collectors are hot on its trail.
Bardstown: Where Bourbon Dreams Come True
Let’s take a detour to Bardstown, Kentucky, the beating heart of Bourbon Country. The Bardstown Bourbon Company isn’t just ahead of the curve—they’re drawing it. From custom whiskey crafting for over 30 brand owners to raking in accolades for their spirit, they’re the Willy Wonka of whiskey, and their factory is open for tours.
