Bird Dog Select Reserve 86 Proof Whiskey 750ml

Bird Dog Select Reserve is a Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey bottled at 86 proof (43% ABV), the brand's unflavored, straight-whiskey release built in response to demand for a Bird Dog bottling without added flavoring. It sits apart from the rest of the Bird Dog lineup, which is built around fruit and dessert-flavored expressions, offering a straightforward bourbon profile of oak, caramel, and grain instead. At 86 proof it's a touch above the standard 80-proof bourbon baseline, giving it a bit more weight without pushing into cask-strength territory. It's a fit for drinkers who like the Bird Dog name but want a genuine straight bourbon rather than a flavored pour.

How to drink Bird Dog Select Reserve

Sip it neat or on a single rock to let the straight bourbon character show — this one doesn't need a flavor gimmick to hold up. It also works fine in a standard Old Fashioned if you want a simple mixed option.
