Bourbon brand 15 Stars announced the launch of its newest expression, Artisan Collection. 

With a limited production of 1,290 bottles, this whiskey release offers a blend of straight bourbon whiskeys aged 15 and 12 years, sourced from Kentucky and Indiana. Beginning now, with a special release in time for the Kentucky Bourbon Festival, the new Artisan Collection is available at select retailers nationwide and online at 15STARS.com. 

“What makes Artisan Collection special is that the bourbon’s mashbill contains a high corn content, which gives the liquid a dessert sweetness,” said Ricky Johnson, co-founder of 15 STARS.  “The sweetness helps to seamlessly balance the oak notes that come with the high age statement.”
