The final expression of “Reflection I” is in circulation and will never be produced again. Around 200 carefully selected barrels were chosen for this bottling, each toasted to a #3 or #4 char and aged in Frankfort and Bardstown, Kentucky. Taste the award winning flavor that's not to be missed. Blue Run “Reflection I” Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey was contract distilled by the company’s liquid advisor, Bourbon Hall of Fame member and 50-year veteran of the industry, Jim Rutledge. TASTING NOTES Nose: This opens with a distinct note of tart yet slightly sweet cherry on the nose with a supporting cast of butterscotch candies, mild firewood, and a hint of pancake batter. Palate: That batter becomes a stack of pancakes with vanilla-laced butter, maple syrup, and a few nuts thrown in that lead to a herb garden full of rosemary bushes. Finish: That savory note mellows out through the mid-palate as a dusting of nutmeg rounds out the finish with hints of woody maple syrup and a final echo of that tart cherry.
