Legent Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a collaborative expression from Beam Suntory, crafted with master blender Shinobu Ishizuka and master distiller Steve Nally. It starts with a core of Kentucky straight bourbons and finishes in wine casks, yielding a layered, wine-kissed profile. The result is a smooth, versatile bourbon with depth and balance, excellent neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails.
