15 Stars First West Explorer Bourbon Whiskey showcases the character of Kentucky in a five-grain blend of straight bourbons aged five years and older. Crafted with the distillery’s proprietary Baby Black Corn and bottled at 47.5% ABV (95 proof), it opens with aromas of cherry, banana pudding, vanilla wafers, meringue, fresh wood, and tobacco.
A rich, full-bodied palate reveals layers of pear, raisin, brown sugar, baking spice, herbal tea, cigar box, and seasoned oak. The finish lingers with bright orange citrus, white pepper, and evolving notes of mature oak. Enjoy this premium Kentucky bourbon neat to explore its complexity, or with a splash of water to unlock deeper flavors and aromas.
