Award-winning Lexington-based craft bourbon brand RD1 Spirits assembled a wood-finished bourbon flight for at-home enjoyment that shares scaled-down versions of RD1 750-ml bottles. In the bourbon tasting box, drinkers will find 200ml glass bottles of RD1 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Finished With French Oak and more, complete with colorful labels that differentiate the wood finishes.
To enhance the tasting experience, RD1 recommends adding its flagship expression, RD1 Kentucky Straight Bourbon, which is the same bourbon used in the three wood finishes. “Our new wood-finished bourbon flight is as close as you can get to the RD1 Tasting Room without being in Lexington,” says Mike Tetterton, CEO of RD1 Spirits.
At-home drinking has surged, driven by a growing preference for intimate gatherings and the convenience of crafting personalized drinking experiences in familiar surroundings.
