Facts

Kings County Distillery built Peated Bourbon to bridge two whisky traditions without losing identity. The spirit starts in New York with a high-corn bourbon base, then picks up peat influence from Scottish malt. That contrast gives the dram a clear personality. Sweet caramel and vanilla meet smoke and baking spice, then settle into dark fruit and char. Nothing feels gimmicky or forced. Kings County keeps the style grounded in pot distillation and patient barrel work. The result feels familiar to bourbon drinkers, yet intriguing for peat fans. It rewards slow sipping neat and steady attention.
