Black Maple Hill Kentucky Straight Bourbon is a small-batch sourced bourbon revived in 2026 by Rare Character Whiskey Co. in Lexington, Kentucky. Originally introduced in 2000 by CVI Brands, the no-age-statement bourbon is blended from barrels selected for depth, structure and character rather than a fixed maturation period. Bottled at 95 proof (47.5% ABV), it typically retails for around $80.
A spicy pepper aroma with roasted almonds and subtle Graham cracker notes leads into a palate rich with caramel, peanut butter, and stone fruit, balanced by warm baking spices.
