The world of bourbon is rich with history and craftsmanship, and few brands capture the spirit of this tradition quite like Colonel Randolph. The 2025 release of Colonel Randolph 16-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon marks a triumphant return for a label steeped in legacy, passion, and meticulous attention to detail. This single-barrel bourbon represents the pinnacle of ultra-premium expressions, honouring its origins while carving a new path for whiskey connoisseurs.

Colonel Randolph carries a history intertwined with the revival of some of the most iconic American whiskeys. The brand’s renaissance began in the late 1980s when whiskey industry pioneer Gordon Hue discovered the Colonel Randolph label amidst a treasure trove of American whiskey brands catalogued for the Japanese market. Hue’s ingenuity and appreciation for vintage bourbon led him to resurrect the brand, infusing it with a commitment to authenticity and excellence.
