Driftless Glen Single Barrel Bourbon Waterford Pick

If you had to choose one distillery that has put Wisconsin whiskey on the map, it would have to be Driftless Glen. They have devoted fans in Bourbon clubs around the country, and our private barrel  with them last year was one of our best selling whiskies ever. Our next collaboration is finally here, and we love it even more than our last offering.

 

And there's good reason why the whiskey world is paying attention to Wisconsin. While Kentucky has long been the epicenter of the Bourbon world, over the last few years connoisseurs have been turning their attention to the grains that go into the bottle, not just the label on the front. And when you start looking for quality grain, there are few places better than the upper Midwest. 

 

It’s one of the reasons we highlight so many Midwest spirits producers. Simply put, they are using some of the best ingredients in the business. 

 

Located in Wisconsin's "Driftless Area" along the banks of the Baraboo River, Driftless Glen is using exclusively Wisconsin grain and water in their production. Those ingredients are put to work in a 10,000-pound, 44-foot tall column still, as well as a one-of-a-kind pot still to ensure exceptional purity of distillation. If you're ever in the area, make time to pay them a visit.

 

Our exclusive single barrel of straight bourbon features nearly 6 years of age, and was bottled at 96 proof, the sweet spot for this style of bourbon that brings out the subtle flavors of caramel, clove and cinnamon.  If you're a bourbon purist you won't want to miss this as an evening sipper, or as a way to elevate your favorite cocktail. And with the holidays just around the corner  you can't got wrong with the gift of one-of-a-kind bourbon.

 

Driftless Glen has gained a passionate following nation-wide with their grain to glass approach. Make sure you pick up this a one of a kind barrel at a killer price.
