Limestone Branch Distillery Master Distiller Steve Beam has announced the 2023 release of Yellowstone Limited Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
This latest bourbon — featuring a blend of 7-year, 13-year and 16-year aged bourbons finished in Tokaji casks — comes bottled at 101 proof.
As he has done with his annual Yellowstone Bourbon offerings since 2015, Beam selected the three aged bourbons, which were then blended and finished in Tokaji casks. Tokaji is a sweet wine from the Tokaji region of Hungary made from white-wine grapes.
“With each year’s Yellowstone Limited Edition offering, I seek a finish that I both personally love and believe will make for a flavorful, well-balanced bourbon. This year, I found the perfect finish in the Tokaji casks sourced from northern Hungary,” says Beam. “Consumers can expect aromas of honey, green grapes and freshly baked cinnamon; a body highlighted by dry spice, followed by caramel, dark cherry, citrus and white pepper; and a finish containing notes of dry tobacco, honeysuckle and smoky oak. Fans of Yellowstone Limited Edition offerings will have a new contender for their favorite!”
The 2023 Yellowstone Limited Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey features custom designed bottles with embossing, a natural cork and label containing the 2023 Yellowstone Limited Edition emblem and a 101-proof callout.
A limited allocation of 10,000 3-in cases roll out nationwide at a suggested retail price of $99.99 per 750-ml. bottle, starting this August.
This follows the launch of Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey.
