134.8 proof. 17 years. Single Barrel #18. 2025. King of Kentucky — the highest-proof 2025 KoK single barrel currently in the Wooden Cork collection, and the apex proof expression of the seven 2025 single barrels in stock.
King of Kentucky is Brown-Forman's ultra-limited annual cask strength bourbon program, drawing on the oldest and most exceptional aged bourbon in the Old Forester / Early Times warehouses in Louisville. Each single barrel expression carries its own natural proof — the 2025 series spans from 127.2 (Barrel #57) through 134.8 (Barrel #18), a 7.6-proof spread across seven in-stock barrels. At 134.8, Barrel #18 is at the top of the 2025 single barrel proof hierarchy.
The King of Kentucky program is one of Brown-Forman's most allocated releases — available only in Kentucky at the distillery and through a small number of licensed specialty retailers. Having seven single barrels from the same 2025 release simultaneously is exceptional.
