About the Spirit

Cream of Kentucky Small Batch Bourbon is a revived gem with a storied history reaching back to its origins in 1888. Originally linked to Cincinnati’s I. Trager & Co., the brand experienced its heyday in the mid-20th century, with iconic Norman Rockwell advertisements boosting its popularity. After being discontinued during the whiskey slump of the 1970s, the brand was reignited under the stewardship of legendary master distiller Jim Rutledge, whose four-decade tenure at Four Roses Bourbon is recognized as industry-defining. Cream of Kentucky now stands as a testament to his expertise and dedication to heritage craft bourbon. Distilled and bottled in Kentucky, this bourbon encapsulates the authentic spirit of traditional whiskey-making while incorporating modern techniques. The use of premium grains and meticulous small-batch production ensures a consistently high-quality pour. Its bottling at 100 proof makes it a bold and versatile choice for bourbon enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
