Announced In April 2019, Kentucky Owl Confiscated Is The First Release For The Brand To Be Available In All 50 States. Confiscated, A Kentucky Straight Bourbon Release, Pays Tribute To The Barrels Seized By The Government Prior To Prohibition That Belonged To C.M. Dedman Who Founded The Kentucky Owl Brand Back In 1879. Master Blender Dixon Dedman Is The Great-Great Grandson Of The Founder And He Resurrected The Brand In 2014.

Kentucky Owl Bourbon was founded in 1879 by C.M. Dedman and is currently led by Dixon Dedman. He recommissioned the brand and released his first batch of bourbon in 2014 and the first batch of rye in 2017. The Kentucky Owl brand was purchased by the Stoli Group who plans to open up a new distillery under this brand name.

According to Kentucky Owl, “Confiscated pays tribute to the barrels the government seized from Dixon’s great-great-grandfather, C.M. Dedman, just ahead of Prohibition. Those barrels were never seen or tasted again. More than a century later, Confiscated is the first offering from Kentucky Owl that will be available in all 50 U.S. states.”

NOSE:

Hints of aged oak mingle with light caramel and leather. Delicate and understated, it’s interesting, and signals towards the whiskey being aged longer than I would have expected.

palate:

A nicely rounded mouthfeel delivers graham crackers, tobacco, and seasoned oak. The flavors are delicate here as they were in the nose, leaning away from sweeter flavors towards the savory side of the scale.

Finish:

Slightly bitter, the finish turns towards a dry leather note at first. Cinnamon spice picks up later, bringing a satisfying pop of spice. Aged oak caps it off. It’s a long, complex, and surprisingly enjoyable finish.

Uniqueness:

While Confiscated doesn’t carry an age statement, the flavor profile suggests a higher age than I expected, with oak-forward characteristics. The bourbon also has dimension, with more complexity than average, and a finish that stands out.
