KY Bourbon Ball
Nothing warms you up better than a bourbon on the rocks in the winter, so why not sweeten it up with some good old fashioned Kentucky bourbon balls! Bourbon balls pack a powerful punch in every bite, just like our Kentucky Bourbon candles, from our bourbon spirits line, pack a powerful scent every time you light them! Also, here’s a fun fact about bourbon balls; they are said to have been first invented in 1938 by Rebecca Ruth Candy Company based in Frankfort, Kentucky!
