King of Kentucky Bourbon was originally established in 1881 and revived in 2018 by Brown-Forman as an ultra-premium annual limited release — single-barrel, barrel-proof, minimally filtered, from highly aged Kentucky straight bourbon barrels. Each barrel yields a limited number of bottles. Every release is unique, uncut, and one of the most coveted bourbons on the market.

An ultra-premium annual limited release from Brown-Forman — single-barrel, barrel-proof, and minimally filtered from highly aged Kentucky straight bourbon barrels. The original King of Kentucky brand dates to 1881; the revival in 2018 by Brown-Forman brought it back as one of the distillery’s prestige annual expressions, positioned alongside Old Forester Birthday Bourbon and Woodford Reserve Master’s Collection as Brown-Forman’s collector tier.
King of Kentucky sits at the top of Brown-Forman’s single-barrel, barrel-proof hierarchy — higher proof and less filtered than Old Forester Birthday Bourbon, and more focused on single-barrel character than the blended Woodford Reserve Master’s Collection expressions. The barrel-proof format means no water is added after aging, so every release reflects the specific barrel selected rather than a house blend profile.
