Kentucky Owl Confiscated: A Tribute to Lost Whiskey, Reborn with Power and Grace
Kentucky Owl Confiscated is a bold and compelling straight bourbon that honours the legacy of the original Kentucky Owl distillery, whose whiskey stocks were seized by the U.S. government during Prohibition. Today, under the guidance of Master Blender John Rhea, Confiscated revives that spirit with a rich, modern twist.
Bottled at 48.2% ABV this bourbon is unfiltered, offering an intense, full-flavoured experience. On the nose, it delivers bright aromas of peach cobbler, baked apples, oak spice, and honeysuckle. The palate is rich and complex, with notes of butterscotch, nutmeg, caramelised citrus, toasted vanilla, and peppery rye spice. A long, warming finish lingers with dark fruit and oak tannin.
What makes Kentucky Owl Confiscated so good is its balance of bold flavour and refined craftsmanship. It’s approachable yet layered, showcasing the blending skill that defines Kentucky Owl’s reputation. Whether you’re a seasoned bourbon drinker or exploring premium American whiskey, Confiscated offers something distinctive and memorable. It’s a bourbon with history, character, and undeniable presence — a standout in any collection and a must-try for those who appreciate heritage reborn in the glass.
