Old Carter Straight American Whiskey KY Batch 2

Old Carter Straight American Whiskey KY Batch 2 — the second Kentucky-market exclusive batch from Old Carter Whiskey Co., founded by Mark and Sherri Carter, co-creators of Kentucky Owl. The KY designation identifies this as a batch allocated exclusively to Kentucky distribution — produced in small quantities for a single market and never distributed nationally.

State-specific Old Carter batches like KY Batch 2 are produced in smaller quantities than the nationally distributed numbered batches, making them rarer and more collectible for enthusiasts tracking the full Old Carter catalog. The Kentucky market batches are particularly notable given the state's significance as the home of bourbon and the depth of the local collector community that tracks and acquires them. Like all Old Carter releases, KY Batch 2 is non-chill filtered, bottled at barrel strength, with Sherri hand-labeling each bottle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Old Carter KY Batch 2 different from the standard numbered batches?

Yes — the KY designation identifies a separate production lot exclusively for Kentucky distribution. Same Old Carter approach (sourced barrel blend, barrel strength, non-chill filtered, hand-labeled) but the specific barrels and total bottle count differ from the main numbered releases. Kentucky market batches circulate locally and are difficult to acquire outside of Kentucky.
