15 Stars Upgrades Its Private Stock Fine Aged Bourbon

15 Stars has announced the limited release of its  8&15 Year Old Private Stock Fine Aged Bourbon – with an updated age statement from the previous 7&15 Year expression – along with its second batch of the award-winning First West Rye Whiskey. Beginning tomorrow, March 1, both expressions will be available on the shelves of select retailers in Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, Missouri, Georgia, and Louisiana, Florida, Massachusetts, Oregon, and Illinois. 15 STARS 8&15 Year Old Private Stock Fine Aged Bourbon, bottled at 107 proof (53.5% ABV), is a blend of Kentucky straight bourbons aged 8 and 15 years, a familiar expression to fans of the previously released 7&15 Private Stock. This item is priced at $139 per bottle.

“We were proud to have shared the previously released 7&15 Year Private Stock in 2022, but this updated expression, with the extended aging, takes the complex blend of flavors to the next level,” shared Ricky Johnson, 15 STARS co-founder. “The 8&15 YO Private Stock Fine Aged Bourbon exemplifies what 15 STARS strives to accomplish with each special release—crafting the finest whiskey with no expense or effort spared.”

In addition to the release of the 8&15 Year Private Stock, 15 STARS is releasing its second batch of First West Rye. Batch 2-SSDD (recognizing that Batch 2 is crafted from the same spirits but bottled on a different day) is a select blend of straight rye whiskeys aged 9, 7, and 6 years from Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee, bottled at 105 proof (52.5% ABV). This whiskey showcases distilling from America’s “First West”, which in 1795 was centered on Kentucky, the first state west of the Appalachians and included the Northwest and Southwest Territories. This item is priced at $89 per bottle.

“Being able to bottle the First West Rye again allows us to continue sipping and enjoying one of our favorite expressions from our portfolio,” adds Johnson. “We know the 15 STARS family will love the second batch just as much as the first, if not more.”
