Lux Row Distillers Unveils Small Batch PX Sherry Cask Finish Nationwide

Lux Row Distillers, based in Bardstown, Kentucky, is set to broaden its renowned Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey offerings with the nationwide launch of the Lux Row Small Batch PX Sherry Cask Finish. This new release will be available starting February at a suggested retail price of $49.99 for a 750mL bottle.

A Unique Crafting Process

Crafted from select small batches of four-year-old Kentucky bourbon, this distinctive spirit is finished for six months in casks previously holding PX Sherry. PX Sherry, known for its intensely rich and sweet profile, is derived from overly ripe, sun-dried grapes, providing a delightful complexity to the bourbon.

This newly launched bourbon boasts an impressive 112 proof (56% ABV) and promises aficionados a delightful tasting experience. The PX Sherry cask finish contributes an appealing aroma of dried figs and dates, accompanied by rich flavors of grape syrup and candied fruit. As you sip, subtle undertones of spice, roasted coffee, and dark chocolate begin to emerge, offering a unique and well-balanced flavor profile that truly stands out.

Master Distiller's Vision

John Rempe, the Master Distiller at Lux Row, expressed his intention behind this new bourbon: “We sought to create a fusion of PX Sherry's intense sweetness with the spicy, peppery notes of our ryed bourbon. The result is a harmonious blend of contrasting yet complementary flavors, creating a one-of-a-kind expression.”

Since its debut in October 2024 at the distillery, the Lux Row Small Batch PX Sherry Cask Finish quickly garnered a strong following among visitors and bourbon enthusiasts alike. Eric Winter, the Brand Manager at Lux Row, noted, “The PX Sherry variant was an immediate crowd-pleaser at Lux Row. We eagerly anticipate expanding its presence and introducing this distinctive offering to bourbon lovers seeking unique flavor experiences.”

A Proud Addition to Lux Row's Award-Winning Portfolio

This launch diversifies the selection of Lux Row's award-winning products. Their existing offerings include the 12-year Double Barrel and Four Grain Double Single Barrel bourbons, both of which have received accolades—such as a Platinum medal at the Ascot Awards and recognition at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

Lux Row Distillers is operated by Luxco, a significant player in the beverage alcohol industry, founded in 1958. Luxco merged with MGP Ingredients, Inc. in 2021, managing a broad portfolio of brands from various distilleries, including popular names like Ezra Brooks, Rebel, and Blood Oath.
