There’s something magical about coffee and whiskey—especially when it’s cold outside or late at night. The Irish Coffee is one of the most beloved warm cocktails in the world. But at Left Bank, we’ve put a Southern twist on this global classic by swapping the Irish whiskey for our smooth, bold Left Bank Bourbon—giving you what we affectionately call the “Kentucky Coffee.”


The Left Bank Kentucky Coffee

This cocktail is comfort in a cup: warm, creamy, slightly sweet, and just boozy enough to make things interesting. Whether you’re sipping it at brunch, by a fire, or after a rich meal, this Southern version of Irish Coffee hits all the right notes.


Here’s how we build ours:

  • Left Bank Bourbon – The star of the show. Its oaky, caramel warmth adds depth and richness that plays beautifully with coffee.

  • Hot Coffee – Strong, freshly brewed, and steaming. A bold base that carries the bourbon and balances the sweetness.

  • Sugar Cubes – Dissolved into the hot coffee to mellow the bite and round out the flavors.

  • Heavy Cream – Gently floated on top for that classic layered look and luxurious mouthfeel.

  • Whipped Cream – A fluffy finish for extra indulgence and a little drama.


Why It Works

The original Irish Coffee is a blend of dark roast coffee, Irish whiskey, sugar, and cream—and it’s stood the test of time for a reason. Our Kentucky Coffee keeps the heart of that tradition but replaces the whiskey with a richer, smoother, Southern spirit.


Bourbon’s caramel and vanilla notes shine through the coffee, while the cream softens every sip into something indulgent and unforgettable. It’s elegant, cozy, and just sweet enough.


Best Moments to Sip One

  • After dinner, instead of dessert

  • Cold mornings that need something extra

  • Brunches that call for a touch of indulgence

  • Fireside evenings where conversation lingers


Warm up the Southern way. Try the Kentucky Coffee with Left Bank and experience how one classic cocktail can be reborn with bourbon, boldness, and a little Southern hospitality. Because sometimes the best part of coffee... is the bourbon in it.
