Lux Row Double Barrel 12Yr and Getting a Pleasant Surprise from a Crackerjack Pour
We crack open a fresh bottle of Lux Row Double Barrel 12-Year Bourbon — a distillery-only release that you can’t get in Australia, and maybe nowhere else outside Bardstown.
In this episode, we talk:
-
🛢️ What “double barrel” really means in this case (2-barrel batch, not rebarreled)
-
🏭 The contrast between Lux Row’s massive operation and smaller craft distilleries
-
🧪 Neck pours, proof levels, and aging dates from both barrels
-
✈️ Why we picked this bottle on our trip and what makes it special
It’s high-proof, high-flavour, and a rare pour with a big Kentucky memory behind it.
