Our 10 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a true reflection of Kentucky tradition, distilled from a classic corn-forward mash bill (77% corn) and aged in deeply charred American oak barrels. Layers of vanilla, dark toffee, and toasted pecans are complemented by warm baking spices and a touch of leather, leading to a velvety, well-rounded finish.

NOSE
A rich, tantalising nose of toffee, ginger, tropical fruits and almond oil. Develops with leather, pepper and toasted oak
TASTE
Sweet caramel drizzled on American-style black licorice ice-cream. Textured, richly honeyed, yet fresh. Thank you, sir may I have another?
ABOUT THE LABEL
Our label of course features the North American Bison, the largest land mammal in North America. Prior to European settlement, millions of bison ranged more widely across the landscape than any other native large herbivore. No other wildlife species has had as much impact on humans and the ecosystems that they occupied than bison. The livery for our label is white, with a rather magnificent bison, he’s even got a rosette, that’s just how magnificent we thought he was.
If you look closely, there’s a herd stampeding through a maize field behind him too.
Well they were there first!
