LOUISVILLE — Lythgoe Bourbon, the brand that celebrates and honors the stories of women who have shaped the whiskey world, announces their newest expression, Catherine’s Legacy, joining Lythgoe’s award-winning 9-year Founders’ Collection and 8-year single barrel Master Blender’s Selection.
Catherine’s Legacy is an 8-year-old, small-batch blend of 4-grain Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey meticulously crafted by Lythgoe’s Master Blender, Steffani Scheurich. This limited-edition release honors Catherine Carpenter, a trailblazer who, in 1818, became the first person to document a whiskey recipe in the United States. Catherine’s Legacy will be available exclusively online and at select retail locations in Kentucky.
“With this release, we pay homage to one of whiskey’s most historic figures, Catherine Carpenter, whose influence continues to inspire generations of distillers,” says Dina Coker, Co-Founder and CEO of Lythgoe Bourbon. “This blend captures the authenticity of a traditional whiskey while delivering the sophistication of a modern-day masterpiece.”
Tasting Notes for Catherine’s Legacy: Catherine’s Legacy greets the eye with a rich medium amber hue, accented by soft red undertones. The nose offers inviting aromas of honey, vanilla, and caramel, complemented by stone fruit, baking spices, sweet oak, leather, and a touch of pepper. On the palate, the bourbon unfolds with layers of honey, vanilla, and sweet grains, balanced by oak, baking spices, and a subtle hint of leather and smoke. The finish is smooth and creamy, with lingering notes of honey, oak, and soft grain, offering a satisfying and refined drinking experience.
Available for purchase online at LythgoeBourbon.com, Catherine’s Legacy and the other Lythgoe expressions, such as the award-winning Founders’ Collection, a 9-year small batch blend, are a testament to fine craftsmanship and the timeless appeal of Kentucky’s distilling heritage. Both are a perfect sip for those who appreciate bourbon with depth and history.
