Lux Row Distillers Announces New PX Sherry Cask Finish Release
The beloved distillery favorite will soon be available to bourbon enthusiasts across the nation.
Lux Row's New Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Lux Row Distillers, known for its exceptional craftsmanship, is thrilled to announce a significant addition to their Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey family. The latest release is the Lux Row Small Batch PX Sherry Cask Finish, inspired by the rich and indulgent flavors of PX Sherry casks.
Craftsmanship Behind the Bourbon
This exquisite bourbon is carefully crafted from small batches of 4-year-old rye straight Kentucky bourbon. After distillation, it is finished in casks that previously held PX Sherry, a sweet wine made from sun-dried grapes. This meticulous process lasts for six months, allowing the bourbon to absorb the deep, complex flavors of the sherry.
Flavor Profile and Unique Characteristics
With a robust proof of 112 (56% ABV), Lux Row Small Batch PX Sherry Cask Finish promises a truly unique tasting experience. The bourbon's aroma is reminiscent of rich dried figs and dates, leading into decadent flavors of grape syrup and candied fruit. Hints of spice, roasted coffee, and dark chocolate round out the profile, creating a well-balanced pour.
The Vision Behind the New Release
Master Distiller John Rempe explains the inspiration behind this innovative release: "We aimed to blend the sweetness of PX Sherry with the spicy notes of our rye bourbon. The result is a delightful combination of two distinct yet complementary flavor profiles that creates a truly one-of-a-kind expression." Lux Row Small Batch PX Sherry Cask Finish debuted not long ago and has quickly become a favorite among distillery visitors.
Expanding Flavor Options for Bourbon Lovers
Brand Manager Eric Winter expressed excitement about sharing this unique offering with bourbon enthusiasts. He noted that the PX Sherry expression has been an immediate hit and is looking forward to expanding its appeal to a broader audience seeking distinctive flavor options.
