They Won Gold, You Win the Flavor 🏅🥃
You can leave Kentucky, but the spirit of Kentucky never leaves you—just ask Harlan native Colin Spoelman. Kings County Distillery was born from a Kentucky heart and a New York state of mind, blending Appalachian moonshine roots with Brooklyn’s bold creativity. Using Scottish copper pot stills, open fermentation, and local grains, they’ve been twice crowned "Distillery of the Year," along with winning a long list of other impressive awards. These gold-winning barrels are proof of their legacy:
🥃 Kings County Bourbon: This is not your typical bourbon. Made with 80% New York organic corn & 20% English Golden Promise barley, this high-malt recipe forgoes the usual wheat or rye, resulting in a rich, flavorful spirit. After double pot distillation and 3-6 years of aging, this bourbon boasts prominent notes of caramel & vanilla, with berry undertones.
🥃 Kings County Peated Bourbon: A unique fusion of bourbon & scotch traditions, consider this a "hybrid" whiskey that brings the best of both. Made with 75% corn & peated malted barley from Scotland, this bourbon offers a robust flavor profile with smoky, campfire notes.
