Blood Oath Pact No. 3 from Lux Row Distillers — the year Blood Oath introduced a finished bourbon component to the triple-barrel formula, adding wine or spirit cask finishing to deepen the blend's complexity.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eStarting with Pact No. 3, Blood Oath began incorporating finished bourbon components into the triple-barrel blend — adding a layer of cask finishing that distinguishes the mid-series Pacts from the founding expressions. A portion of the blend spent additional time in a secondary cask (wine, spirit, or specialty wood) before being integrated with two non-finished bourbons, producing a more complex final expression with additional fruit, spice, or oak nuance from the finishing cask.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePact No. 3 is therefore a transitional expression in the Blood Oath series — the point at which the format evolved beyond a pure triple-blend into the finished-component format that characterizes Pacts 4 through 8. For collectors building a complete Blood Oath vertical, Pact No. 3 represents the moment the series' complexity ambitions expanded.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lux Row Distillers, Bardstown, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Triple-barrel blend with finished component\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRelease:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pact No. 3\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eExplore the full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/blood-oath\"\u003eBlood Oath collection\u003c\/a\u003e or browse all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhat finishing cask does Pact No. 3 use?\u003c\/strong\u003e Pact No. 3 incorporates a finished bourbon component — the specific cask type is documented in Lux Row's release materials.
