Blue Run Kentucky Straight Bourbon Ember

Meet Ember, the bold winter bourbon from Blue Run that smolders rather than shouts. Bottled at a formidable 128.8 proof (64.4% ABV), this Kentucky Straight Bourbon blends three unique barrels selected for char-rich spice and wood influence, intentionally crafted to amplify warmth without burning the palate. The design is clever: the contrast of heat and cool, inspired by cold-weather sipping and deep oak aromatics. On the nose: cinnamon bundt cake, rich caramel, toffee, then tea leaf and dry oak emerge. On the palate: nougat, vanilla bean, building waves of cinnamon spice, honeyed sweetness, and quietly confident wood. The finish is dry oak, leather, and lingering spice—perfect for slow sipping and reflection.
