“Lily May Bourbon is my humble expression of appreciation for those who created these now well-known bourbon trails long, long before me. I feel privileged and, at the same time, proud of becoming a part of the amazing history and future of bourbon and share my artistic imagination for others to enjoy.”
Having been born and raised in Kentucky, I quickly realized how important two things are to our state- horse racing and bourbon. Bourbon has exploded from a local pleasure, gained from a few local brands, into a global craze which has led to the proliferation of a large number of brands which are enjoyed worldwide. And that is why I am here.
A student of the Gatton School of Business and Economics at the University of Kentucky, I now realize that I want to use my education to carve a path into the Bourbon Industry. I am proud to be the Co-Founder and President of LM Spirits, LLC, which owns Lily May Bourbon.
In a sea of bourbon brands, Lily May stands out because of how it speaks to its customers and its commitment to a very broad group that doesn’t exclude women. The Lily May elegance and panache is obvious from the first look and feel of the bottle. The 750ml bottle is made in France and is adorned with real 24 karat gold to send a message to everyone that this is something special.
The “Floral Bouquet Nose” becomes immediately apparent when you open the bottle and wake our bourbon, and the scent keeps becoming more “open” while the anticipation of tasting grows.
The “First Taste” is a pure expression of flavor refinement and the certain realization that bourbons are different, and Lily May is very different in the very best way. The “Kentucky Hug” is wistfully subtle and allows enjoyment of the immediate “notes” of honey, caramel, and brown sugar.
The “Finish” is also unique with a crisp completeness and a long-lasting memory that becomes your very own bourbon experience. It will also cause you to come back time after time to share moments with your newfound friend, Lily May.
