Unlike Bourbon or Rye, which, by definition, must be aged in new oak barrels, our US1 Unblended American Whiskey is aged in a way that utilizes whiskey-soaked barrels to achieve a rich and unique flavor profile. In late 2013, then Master Distiller Willie Pratt agreed to re-release our US1 Unblended American Whiskey after a nearly three-year absence from the market, deeming it "just right" and "the best it’s ever been." Crucially, our US1 Unblended American Whiskey never contains grain neutral spirits - hence its "unblended" distinction. PRODUCTION: Small batch. Limited quantities. - STATE OF DISTILLATION Kentucky - BOTTLING STRENGTH 83.4 proof (41.7% Alcohol by Volume) - COOPERAGE: Whiskey-soaked American white oak barrels - TASTING NOTES: Deep butterscotch and vanilla notes, hints of caramel and dried fruit with a ripened fruit finish.

Wine Enthusiast
"This small-batch whiskey is a treat, butter-soft and loaded with sweet toffee and hazelnut aromas and flavors. The long finish rolls toward dry espresso and mocha flavors, pepped up with clove and cinnamon."

The Tasting Panel
"A complex array of scents—rancio, cedar, black cherry, and saddle leather—appear on the nose. On the bold palate, cigar leaf and mocha are gently balanced by dried apricot. There’s some wet-stone minerality on the finish that works well with a touch of caramel."
