Florida Straight Bourbon

44% ABV / 88 PROOF

Our Florida Straight bourbon is made from a mash bill of 60% Florida corn, 22% barley, and 18% Florida wheat, and aged a minimum of three years. We do not chill filter our bourbon, rather we do as little filtration as possible. This is a classic Florida bourbon.

COLOR: Dark honey amber.
NOSE: Deep and warm with notes of toffee, cinnamon marshmallow, leather, stone fruit, and vanilla and dark cocoa.
TASTE: Full bodied, deep and complex. Hints of tobacco, caramel, brazil nut, chocolate and baking spices.
FINISH: Sweet, smooth and creamy. Round and lingering.

This is the perfect everyday bourbon. Great in an Old Fashioned and a really wonderful bourbon to sip neat or over ice.

 

We are very proud of the fact that unlike many craft distilleries, we make every drop of bourbon that we sell. We do not purchase and re-barrel or bottle other companies bourbon. What you get is our hand-made Florida interpretation of America’s spirit. Our Florida Straight bourbon is made from a mash bill of 60% Florida corn, 22% barley, and 18% Florida wheat. We grind the grains on-site, mash and ferment in our building, and distill the spirit in our pot still. Our Distillers make head, heart, and tail cuts ensuring the quality and consistency only found in a hand-crafted spirit. Once the hearts are collected, they make their way to their new home in a new, 53-gallon charred oak barrel. These barrels have been toasted and charred to our custom specifications. Our Distillers sample the spirit periodically, tracking and grading each barrel through its life cycle. After aging a minimum of three years, we select the barrels to harvest, and marry those barrels in small batches of 16 – 40 barrels, taking into account each barrel’s location and height in the warehouse. This ensures a consistent flavor profile. We do not chill filter our bourbon, rather we do as little filtration as possible. This keeps the mouth feel of a traditional pot distillation, heightening the enjoyment of your drinking experience. We then hand bottle the spirit, resulting in a classic Florida bourbon.
