Distilled at one of the state’s oldest distilleries, this bourbon reflects the meticulous care taken in its production. It is aged on-site in historic warehouses, ensuring a controlled environment that perfectly matures the whiskey to its peak flavor.

Whiskey Profile: At 90 proof (45% alcohol by volume), Green River Kentucky Straight Bourbon is robust yet smooth. The mash bill consists of 70% locally-sourced Kentucky corn, 21% winter rye, and 9% malted barley. This composition not only underscores the bourbon’s authenticity and regional sourcing but also enhances the complexity of its taste profile with a spicier edge due to the higher rye content.

• Palate: Rich and full-bodied, it envelops the taste buds with flavors of vanilla and caramel, progressing to dark chocolate-coated peppermints, infused with nuances of cinnamon and light leather.
• Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering sensation of a rich, creamy mouthfeel with echoes of the spice and sweetness experienced on the palate.

Appearance: This whiskey boasts a rich golden-amber color, indicative of its meticulous aging process and the quality of the barrels used, which impart a deep and appealing hue.
