This exceptional whiskey, born from Spring 2016 distillations of Minnesota rye, Kentucky corn, and North Dakota malted barley, stands as a testament to the artistry of American craftsmanship.

This remarkable whiskey undergoes a double distillation process, utilising both a beer still and doubler. After coming off the still at a robust 135 proof it is then aged for 6 years in new white oak barrels, crafted by Independent Stave in Lebanon, MO and charred with precision at #4 for 55 seconds. At the point of entry into the barrel, the whiskey boasts an impressive 125 proof. Stored within warehouses I, L & M on the 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th floors, it endures the test of time, with an evaporation loss of 31%, signifying the true artistry of the distillation process.

Embrace a piece of American history and enjoy the captivating journey of this remarkable whiskey. Perfect for connoisseurs and collectors alike, this whiskey is a true embodiment of tradition and time-honored craftsmanship.
