Blood Oath Pact No. 8 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
Blood Oath Pact No. 8 is a discontinued, one-time 2022 release from Lux Row Distillers, blending a 14-year ryed bourbon with an 11-year ryed bourbon and an 8-year ryed bourbon finished in French Calvados casks — an apple and pear brandy from the Normandy region. Capped at 17,000 cases and never repeated, every remaining bottle is a genuine collector's piece.
A standout entry in the series for its fruit-forward profile, leaning into apple and pear character rather than the spice-forward notes of earlier Pacts — a strong pick for series completionists or anyone drawn to brandy-cask finishing.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Apple, vanilla, cinnamon
Palate: Ripe apple, juicy pear, butterscotch, subtle chocolate
Finish: Warm spice, lingering fruit

Brand/Distillery: Lux Row Distillers

Serving Suggestion: Best enjoyed neat to let the apple and pear character from the Calvados finish come through.
