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.
