World Whiskey Society Introduces Unique 12-Year Kentucky Bourbon

In a delightful announcement just in time for the holidays, the World Whiskey Society (WWS) has unveiled its fourth and final quarterly release for 2025: a sophisticated 12-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon that has been meticulously finished in Pear Brandy casks. This limited-edition bourbon is available for both new and existing Society Subscription members, allowing whiskey lovers to receive this exclusive offering right at their doorstep.

A Remarkable Fusion of Flavors

Alex Kogan, the visionary Founder of the World Whiskey Society, expressed enthusiasm over this special release: "For our fourth and final Society Subscription release of 2025, we selected a unique 12-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon finished in Pear Brandy Casks. This release is a fantastic way to conclude an incredible year, and we're excited to share it with our World Whiskey community."

This bourbon is truly a testament to refinement. Upon pouring, the luscious aromas of peanut brittle and warm honeycomb create a welcoming bouquet, completed with nuanced notes of pear nectar and hints of toffee sweetness. Underneath these inviting fragrances lies a subtle complexity, featuring delicate undertones of light tea and deep oak spice that strike a perfect balance.

The experience continues on the palate, which is rich and inviting, with a delightful showcase of ripe pear and caramelized nuts upfront. The influence of the pear brandy cask adds a unique fruity note that elevates the tasting experience. Layers of golden honey, smooth vanilla, and a whisper of black tea merge seamlessly with the classic depth of a Kentucky bourbon. As the flavors unfold, the finish is long, smooth, and lightly sweet, leaving lingering impressions of pear preserves, toasted oak, and an echo of candied peanut brittle. Overall, this bourbon beautifully marries the richness typical of Southern confectionery with the elegant fruit and floral nuances characteristic of pear brandy casks. It is both decadent and graceful.
