Louisiana Senator Bourbon 8 Year - Huey P. Long

Kentucky Senator Spirits, LLC, the team behind the award-winning Kentucky Senator Bourbon brand, debuting an all-new collection, Louisiana Senator Bourbon, beginning with The Huey P. Long Release.

Marking a new chapter for the brand, this expansion brings the bold heritage of its small-batch Kentucky Bourbon into one of the South’s most spirited states. The inaugural Louisiana Senator Bourbon small-batch release will celebrate the colorful legacy of Senator Huey P. Long, known nationwide as “The Kingfish.”

The Huey P. Long Release is the first in a three-part vertical series featuring an 8-year, 9-year, and 10-year Bourbon over the next two years. The new line is bottled at a powerful 107 proof, with a 78% corn, 13% rye, 9% malted barley mash bill. This debut release offers a rich and complex profile—and a limited run of just 1,000 bottles, including a small batch and single barrel option. It will be distributed by Uncorked in Louisiana.

Kentucky Senator Bourbon collaborated with Denny Potter and Jane Bowie of Potter Jane Distillery in Springfield, Kentucky to blend the Louisiana Senator Bourbon Huey Long Release. Potter and Bowie will also work with Kentucky Senator Bourbon on subsequent releases of Louisiana Senator in 2026 and 2027 that will be part of a three-bottle vertical release. This collaboration is part of Kentucky Senator Bourbon's collaboration with master distillers and blenders to produce world class Bourbon.

“We couldn’t think of a better figure to launch this new line than Huey P. Long,” said Kentucky Senator Bourbon co-founder Andre Regard. “He was bold, unapologetic and unforgettable just like this Bourbon.”

Remembered as one of the most audacious and populist voices in American political history, Senator Huey P. Long served as Louisiana’s governor from 1928–1932 and U.S. Senator from 1932 until his assassination in 1935. His “Every Man a King” philosophy and fiery charisma earned him national attention and his legacy looms large in Louisiana lore.

“Louisiana has always been Bourbon country,” said co-founder Damon Thayer, “and we’re excited to bring both Kentucky Senator and Louisiana Senator Bourbon into this vibrant community of collectors and enthusiasts.”
