Its been 3 years since our first 1792 BIB expression, and we are thrilled to announce 1792 BIB VOL II!
​
For this barrel selection we called in some help from some of the most experienced whiskey folks we know, our retail partner outlets! Samples were sent out to our partners with simple instructions; give each sample a rating along with your tasting notes. We tallied up the results and as a group picked an absolutely stunning example of 1792 Bottled in Bond.
​
In 1897, the Bottled-in-Bond Act revolutionized the quality of American whiskey. Carrying on that tradition, this well-aged bourbon comes from only barrels filled during the same distilling season and is bottled at exactly 100 proof for a bold taste and lingering finish—a testament to the Bottled-in-Bond Act established over a century ago.
