Bottled at 110 proof, Batch 3 is designed to show the bolder, more oak-forward side of the same limited bourbon blend used across the series. It follows Batch 1 at 105 proof and Batch 2 at 107.5 proof, making Batch 3 the strongest expression of the trio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"602\" data-end=\"1072\"\u003eThis release is made from a blend of Kentucky straight bourbon barrels aged 12 to 18 years. Brown-Forman selected approximately 100 barrels for the small batch collection, then divided the whiskey into three proof points to highlight how small proof changes can shift aroma, texture, and flavor. The mash bill is reported as 75% corn, 15% rye, and 10% malted barley, giving Batch 3 a classic bourbon base with enough rye spice to support its mature oak and higher proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1074\" data-end=\"1392\"\u003eFor collectors, Batch 3 carries particular appeal because it is the final and boldest bottle in the three-part King of Kentucky Small Batch series. It delivers the rare combination of age, proof, limited availability, Brown-Forman heritage, and King of Kentucky prestige in a bottle built for serious bourbon drinkers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1krg0gn\" data-start=\"1394\" data-end=\"1411\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1413\" data-end=\"1635\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1falud8\" data-start=\"1413\" data-end=\"1457\"\u003eRich chocolate and brown sugar on the nose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"sp93i4\" data-start=\"1458\" data-end=\"1502\"\u003eCitrus brightness with pine-like freshness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"19du85c\" data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1542\"\u003eBold oak and spice through the palate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1xk1716\" data-start=\"1543\" data-end=\"1586\"\u003eCaramel, vanilla, and mature barrel depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1hr2ysi\" data-start=\"1587\" data-end=\"1635\"\u003eLong, oak-forward finish with lingering warmth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"16w076p\" data-start=\"1637\" data-end=\"1662\"\u003eWhat Makes It Special\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1664\" data-end=\"2041\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"15u4m7c\" data-start=\"1664\" data-end=\"1733\"\u003eBatch 3 of 3 in the King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1ms4xvk\" data-start=\"1734\" data-end=\"1784\"\u003eHighest-proof release in the series at 110 proof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"ghd8pf\" data-start=\"1785\" data-end=\"1823\"\u003eBlend of barrels aged 12 to 18 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1pon0rb\" data-start=\"1824\" data-end=\"1899\"\u003eLimited small batch expression from Brown-Forman’s King of Kentucky label\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"10ftz1m\" data-start=\"1900\" data-end=\"1964\"\u003eMash bill reported as 75% corn, 15% rye, and 10% malted barley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"ivp93h\" data-start=\"1965\" data-end=\"2041\"\u003eBuilt to show the boldest, most oak-forward side of the three-batch lineup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"fjs8yi\" data-start=\"2043\" data-end=\"2059\"\u003eHow to Enjoy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2061\" data-end=\"2410\"\u003eBrown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 is best enjoyed neat in a whiskey tasting glass so its mature oak, chocolate, spice, and long finish can open slowly. Let the bourbon rest in the glass for several minutes before sipping, especially because the higher proof and older barrel components give it more depth as it breathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2412\" data-end=\"2791\"\u003eA few drops of water can help unlock more sweetness, citrus, and vanilla while softening the oak and proof. A large ice cube can work for a slower, more relaxed pour, but this is primarily a collectible sipping bourbon. It is especially strong in a tasting lineup with Batch 1 and Batch 2, where drinkers can compare how the same whiskey changes across 105, 107.5, and 110 proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"ul2pwc\" data-start=\"2793\" data-end=\"2823\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col data-start=\"2825\" data-end=\"4108\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1e4baa3\" data-start=\"2825\" data-end=\"3113\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2828\" data-end=\"2916\"\u003eWhat does Brown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 taste like?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2916\" data-end=\"2919\"\u003eBrown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 tastes bold and oak-forward, with rich chocolate, brown sugar, citrus, pine, caramel, vanilla, spice, and a long warming finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"86jqm5\" data-start=\"3115\" data-end=\"3306\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"3118\" data-end=\"3196\"\u003eHow old is Brown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"3196\" data-end=\"3199\"\u003eBrown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 is made from barrels aged 12 to 18 years.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1cdtjf6\" data-start=\"3308\" data-end=\"3507\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"3311\" data-end=\"3392\"\u003eWhat proof is Brown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"3392\" data-end=\"3395\"\u003eBrown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 is bottled at 110 proof, which equals 55% ABV.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"ku1xwe\" data-start=\"3509\" data-end=\"3826\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"3512\" data-end=\"3625\"\u003eWhat makes Brown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 different from Batch 1 and Batch 2?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"3625\" data-end=\"3628\"\u003eBrown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 is the highest-proof release in the three-batch series, bottled at 110 proof, while Batch 1 is 105 proof and Batch 2 is 107.5 proof.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1od2m1t\" data-start=\"3828\" data-end=\"4108\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"3831\" data-end=\"3914\"\u003eWhere can I buy Brown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"3914\" data-end=\"3917\"\u003eYou can buy Brown-Forman King of Kentucky Small Batch 12 Year Batch 3 of 3 directly from The Barrel Tap, a trusted online source for rare bourbon, collectible whiskey, and limited spirits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"10lwabh\" data-start=\"4110\" data-end=\"4130\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"King Of Kentucky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48262464110817,"sku":"082184009246","price":499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0416\/3023\/6825\/files\/BrownForman_sKingOfKentuckySmallBatch12YearBatch3of3.webp?v=1777569980","url":"https:\/\/www.thebarreltap.com\/products\/brown-formans-king-of-kentucky-small-batch-12-year-batch-3-of-3","provider":"The Barrel Tap","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
