Introducing Indigo's Hour, A Rare, Limited-Edition Straight Bourbon Whiskey Transformed Through 18 Years of Barrel Aging
The newest bourbon from Orphan Barrel embraces the evolution of flavor and craft over time, drawing inspiration from metamorphosis
Orphan Barrel 的最新波本威士忌融合了口味和工艺随着时间的推移而不断演变，从变形中汲取灵感
TULLAHOMA, Tenn., April 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- AMERICA'S WHISKEY HEARTLANDS -- Orphan Barrel Whiskey Distilling Co. presents a new liquid within its collection: Indigo's Hour Straight Bourbon Whiskey Aged 18 Years, a testament to the artistry of American Whiskey craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from nature's most enchanting transitions, Indigo's Hour symbolizes the delicate balance between transformation and tradition. Much like the lifecycle of a butterfly, which we've chosen to represent our whiskey through the bottle's label design, the bourbon undergoes a metamorphosis of its own, as it journey's from barrel to bottle with meticulous care and attention to detail. Distilled in Indiana, aged in Kentucky and bottled in Tennessee, each stage of this liquid's journey contributed to its unique character and complexity.
田纳西州塔拉霍马，2024年4月2日 /PRNewswire/ — 美国的威士忌中心地带 — Orphan Barrel Whiskey Distilling Co. 推出其系列中的一种新液体：Indigo's Hour Straight 波本威士忌陈酿18年，这证明了美国威士忌工艺的艺术性。Indigo's Hour 从大自然中最迷人的过渡中汲取灵感，象征着转型与传统之间的微妙平衡。就像蝴蝶的生命周期一样，我们选择通过瓶身的标签设计来代表我们的威士忌，波本威士忌在从一个桶到另一个瓶子的旅程中经历了自己的变形，经过了细致的谨慎和对细节的关注。这种液体在印第安纳州蒸馏，在肯塔基州陈酿，在田纳西州装瓶，这种液体的每个阶段都赋予了其独特的特性和复杂性。

"Indigo's Hour is perfect for those who appreciate the complex flavors and craft behind American-bourbon making," said DIAGEO Master Blender Andrew Mackay. "Its liquid and bottle label symbolizes how the Orphan Barrel collection continues to evolve from its predecessors, making it a true collectible for those who appreciate fine spirits and rare whiskies."
帝亚吉欧调酒大师安德鲁·麦凯说：“对于那些欣赏美国波旁威士忌制作背后的复杂口味和工艺的人来说，Indigo's Hour是完美的选择。”“它的液体和瓶装标签象征着Orphan Barrel系列如何从其前身不断演变，使其成为那些喜欢上等烈酒和稀有威士忌的人的真正收藏品。”
Crafted from a carefully selected mashbill of 68% corn, 28% rye, and 4% malt, Indigo's Hour aged gracefully over 18 years in charred white oak barrels, resulting in an exquisite Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Its flavor profile evolves on the palate, initially presenting creamy vanilla notes on the nose, followed by toasted oak, baking spices and red fruit. Subtle hints of caramel, honey, rich vanilla, and spice gradually yield a velvety finish with a touch of oak.
Indigo's Hour 由精心挑选的 68% 的玉米、28% 的黑麦和 4% 的麦芽制成，在烧焦的白橡木桶中优雅地陈酿了18年以上，酿造出一款精致的纯波本威士忌。它的口感随着口感的变化而变化，最初的鼻子上呈现出奶油香草的香草味，其次是烤橡木、烘焙香料和红色水果的味道。淡淡的焦糖、蜂蜜、浓郁香草和香料的味道逐渐营造出天鹅绒般的余味和淡淡的橡木味。
The bottle design pays homage to the spirit's origin story - drawing inspiration from the crops, flora and fauna native to the heartlands of America's whiskey regions. The spirit animal is the Pipevine Swallowtail, the most colorful butterfly to call Indiana home, where this rare whiskey is distilled. Part of the label was inspired by The Witches Tree, a legendary maple tree found in Louisville, KY just a few minutes away from where Indigo's Hour was aged. The landscapes depicted in the background were inspired by the creek that sits amongst the rivers and marshlands in Cascade Hollow, Tullahoma, Tennessee, where Indigo's Hour was bottled.
酒瓶的设计向该烈酒的起源故事致敬——灵感来自于美国威士忌产区中心地带的农作物、动植物。精神动物是 Pipevine Swallowtail，这是印第安纳州最鲜艳的蝴蝶，这种稀有威士忌是在那里蒸馏的。该品牌的部分灵感来自于The Witches Tree，这是一棵位于肯塔基州路易斯维尔的传奇枫树，距离Indigo's Hour的陈年地只有几分钟的路程。背景中描绘的风景灵感来自田纳西州塔拉霍马州喀斯喀特霍洛的河流和沼泽地之间的小溪，那里装瓶了 Indigo's Hour。
Indigo's Hour, like other Orphan Barrel Whiskeys, embodies the fleeting nature of exceptional liquid craftsmanship. Inspired by the time of day, which we call Indigo's Hour, between dusk and dark when the sky is at its most beautiful and a bourbon beckons to be sipped, this whiskey is made in only one highly-limited batch, and once it's gone, it's gone forever.
像其他 Orphan Barrel Whiskeys 一样，Indigo's Hour 体现了卓越液体工艺稍纵即逝的本质。这款威士忌的灵感来自于我们称之为 “Indigo's Hour” 的时段，介于黄昏和黑暗之间，天空最美丽，波旁威士忌召人们啜饮。这款威士忌仅限量生产一批，一旦消失，就会永远消失。
This special edition bottle is available at select spirits retailers nationwide with a suggested retail price of $225 for 750mL, and is available for purchase beginning April 1, 2024 as a timely collectible for those who treasure rare spirits and seek to capture a piece of whiskey history.
