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.
Classified as whiskey and not bourbon because it’s not aged in new charred oak barrels, but rather used bourbon barrels. This allows mellow flavor with less intense smoky, charred influence found in bourbons. Instead, sweetness, oak, mint and spice are dominant flavors.
