Introducing Lost Marbles

In the 8+ years of running Seelbach's I've noticed several things remain constant. One, there will always be expensive limited blends released that don't live up to the hype or price. Second, and most pertinent today, there will always be affordable gems that punch above their weight. The latter is exactly what we love finding and highlighting for you all.
Lost Marbles was founded by Nick Brown and Kevin Martin, with a shared belief that a little madness is part of a life well lived. They wanted to make spirits at the highest quality and have some fun along the way. Starting their own spirits company seemed like a perfectly unreasonable next step.
The philosophy is simple: high standards, focus on taste, and let the finished spirit speak for itself. They believe a great spirit needs no tall tale. The most compelling story is the one in the glass.
Little Batch is Lost Marbles flagship bourbon. Built from 7-year, 8-year, and 12-year Kentucky bourbons from three Kentucky distilleries and bottled at 103 proof, this pour drinks rich for its proof and easy enough to be enjoyed by many. With that age range, proof, and price for a Kentucky bourbon blend, it's hard to go wrong!
Have some fun and know it’s okay to lose your marbles now and then.
Leaning into nuance without sacrificing richness, the nose leads with Luxardo cherry syrup, buttercream frosting, and lightly damp wood, layered with plenty of chai tea warmth and spice.
Like the nose, the palate strikes a balance between silky cherry juice and freshly made chai concentrate. It’s lively across the palate yet still carries plenty of weight, turning mid-palate toward darker dried fruit, black tea tannin, peanut butter fudge, and rich sweet oak.
The finish brings spiced toffee and cherry cola concentrate, with that nutty sweetness and seasoned oak lingering long after each sip.
