Distilled and aged in Kentucky, Calumet's 8 year old is batched in less than 50 barrel batches and bottled at 45% ABV. The 74% corn, 18% rye, and 8% malted barley mash bill give a lovely balance between sweet candied corn notes and peppery rye. The rich oak influence lends a dramatic spice, and the finish is long and sweet. In the modern world of Kentucky bourbon, Calumet's 8 year delivers excellent value.
