Orphan Barrel Blood Oath Pact No.5 Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey (750ml)

The Blood Oath series launched in 2015 with Pact No. 1. Each highlights a different variant, or Pact. In 2018 it's a union of three well-bred bourbons: a 13-year mahogany bourbon, un‑apologetically peppery with shavings of dark chocolate. An 11-year silky, wheated bourbon rich with vanilla and honey. And an 8-year find finished in Caribbean rum barrels to impart orange, brown sugar and warm island spice.

Proprietor, John Kempe comments, “When selecting these bourbons, I knew the dark rum sweet notes would be a perfect complement for these well-aged bourbons, and the result is extremely satisfying. On the nose, Pact No. 5 comes right off with dark fruit notes, brown sugar and a touch of orange zest, followed by sugar cane and dark chocolate notes and a little heat once you sip it. This one offers a lingering finish, accented by notes of honey.”
