Description
A bold and experimental release, Blood Oath Pact No. 12 continues the acclaimed series with a distinctive wine-cask finish. This limited-edition Kentucky bourbon is finished in Montepulciano and Sangiovese wine casks, adding layers of dark fruit, tannin, and complexity to its rich bourbon foundation.
Carefully blended and bottled in small quantities, each Blood Oath pact is designed to push boundaries while maintaining balance—making Pact No. 12 a standout for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
Process & Profile
Built from a blend of carefully selected bourbons, Pact No. 12 undergoes a finishing period in Italian red wine casks that previously held Montepulciano and Sangiovese. This secondary maturation introduces bold fruit character and subtle tannic structure, enhancing the whiskey’s depth without overpowering its core.
The result is a layered, full-bodied bourbon that merges classic Kentucky richness with Old World wine influence.
