The new Flight Series from Blue Run Spirits is a series of small batch blends of bourbon that is worth checking out
world by doing things a little bit differently. Instead of creating a core expression that is based on consistency, Blue Run has worked with whiskey industry veterans to contract distill and sourceand rye in limited runs that often vary depending on the batch. The company also releases what it calls “micro batches,” and the new Flight Series of six whiskeys is proof of how this concept can work.How to Make a Kingston Negroni, a Funky Rum Twist on the Classic CocktailNikein 2021.
For the second Flight Series, one of Blue Run’s micro-batch collections, Gammon blended three to four barrels of the signature High Rye Bourbon into six unique batches. That means that each bottle in the series will taste different, and the one I got to sample for this review is called Joshua Tree Sunrise. It’s a blend of three barrels that were distilled at either, or another undisclosed distillery, and aged in a non-climate controlled warehouse in Bardstown, Kentucky.
No, this bourbon doesn’t remind me of Joshua Tree, a place I’ve visited many times, but that’s fine . The price tag for each of the the bottles in Flight Series II is $120, and you can actually find them for less than $200 from online secondary retailers. If the simple pleasures ofare more your speed, that’s a very understandable stance to take and this might not be quite to your liking.
