Product Description

Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness - the founding principles of the United States, epitomized by the American bald eagle. These principles reward the freedom, spirit, and independence of the individual, who brings to the world products and innovations never before seen. One such innovation was Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Each Kentucky settlers created Bourbon, the true American spirit, in the late 1700s. By practice, and protected by law, no other distilled spirit adheres to standards as strict as those established for Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Few other Bourbons can offer even a glimpse of the great whiskey making found in Eagle Rare - even fewer can claim they've spent such an extraordinary length of time in the barrel. Eagle Rare 12 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey offers a sweet, oaky nose, a full, complex body with subtle vanilla notes, and a long-lasting, rich finish. Reminiscent of a fine port wine, this rare whiskey is perfect for savoring neat, or over ice.

What critics and judges wrote

Distiller · Amanda Schuster
Sweet and nutty aromas of vanilla, cherry, and almond fill the nose along with spicy aromatics of ginger, clove, and nutmeg. The palate is creamy, but held together well by balanced spice structure and tart cherry and apricot notes.

Whisky Advocate · David Fleming · 2025
Honey, clove, and whipped cream, anchored by earthy oak on a very aromatic nose. … a deliciously gooey palate of honeyed almonds, buttered French toast, raspberry jam, and a bite of pepper spice. … Good body, full-flavored, and delicious.

IWSC judges · Silver · 2026
A well-structured spirit with a smooth, silky entrance, revealing integrated spice and rich dried fruit. The palate offers robust oak and burnt toast crust notes, leading to a lingering, dry finish that captivates with quiet strength.
