This superior bourbon has flavors of rich butterscotch and caramel notes, delicately balanced with hints of fruit and toffee.">

Border Straight Bourbon is artisan distilled from grains provided by a 6th generation family farm, minutes from the distillery. No short cuts. We practice traditional aging techniques in medium char, Ozark White Oak barrels constructed from wood staves that are air dried three years. No Blending: only whiskey from our grain and distilled in our pot is put in bottles that carry our name.">

Perfection is a patient man’s game. So we waited until Angel’s Envy reached the perfect level of maturity. We judge only a handful of barrels exceptional enough for our lengthy finishing process. The result? Even at 124.5 proof, every sip is worth savoring.

A remarkably complex and unfiltered spirit, we suggest you enjoy it neat or with just a splash of water to release the flavor nuances, and perhaps with a few friends who appreciate outstanding whiskey. Angel’s Envy Cask Strength was worth waiting for, now it’s worth sharing.

Appearance: Rich gold with an amber depth

Nose: Oak, Tea Leaves, Smoke, Leather, Fresh Herbs

Palate: Green Apple, Queen Anne Cherries, Citrus Peel, Rock Candy

Finish: Toast, Apricot Pie, Vanilla, Gardenia">

We fill these casks with a blend of 6- and 9-year-old Bourbons. The robust flavors from the casks pair well with the spicy high rye content of the Bourbon and create a striking profile unlike any other whiskey in the world.

Belle Meade Bourbon Madeira Cask Finish has been cut to 90.4 proof and, as with all of our products, is never chill-filtered. The result is a Bourbon of particular distinction and uncommon character. Have it neat, with a splash, over a sphere of ice, or create a distinguished twist on your favorite whiskey-based classic cocktail. However you drink it, you'll know you are enjoying a rare spirit made for the discerning whiskey drinker.">

From the nation's oldest conservation organization, founded in 1887 by Theodore Roosevelt, we've found these three handcrafted whiskies that reflect a passion for connecting with the great outdoors. Shop for Boone and Crockett Club Whiskey products and buy today at the best online liquor store.">

After several years, once our whiskies have developed a robust richness and a mellow golden hue, we taste and assemble the final blend… but instead of going right to bottling, we allow the batch to "rest" a while - a few months or longer, in 225 liter casks made of French oak previously used in the aging of wine. The tighter grain and subtle flavor profile of these older French oak barrels adds a degree of elegance and finesse to the finished whiskey - nothing overpowering, but a layer of stylish complexity that really pulls all the components together.">

On the nose, there is an immediate aroma of fresh multi-grain baked bread and ripened nougat. The midpalate mouthfeel is rounded out with semi-sweet flavors of grilled pineapple and candied walnuts. On the finish, you will find a perfect balance of sweet and savory with cooked peaches and steeped tobacco.">

One masterpiece, Zero compromise.

Sip it straight, chilled, or on the rocks. Enjoy the fruity aroma from the sherry casks combined with the vanilla oaky cooperage notes to round off the flavorful and mature taste of our most exquisite bourbon.

Aroma: PLEASANT FRUIT INFLUENCE,COMBINED WITH VANILLA OAKY NOTES.

Flavor: SMOOTH, RICH MIX OFPX SHERRY ANDBOURBON FLAVORS.

After a 13-year hiatus from the bourbon industry during Prohibition, and at nearly 70 years old, James B. Beam and his family rebuilt the distillery in Clermont by hand to get the family business up and running once again. Today, Jim Beam is the best-selling bourbon in the world.

Jim Beam Repeal Batch is aged four years, similar to Jim Beam Bourbon, however this unique liquid is non-chill filtered, resulting in a bourbon with fuller mouthfeel and tasting notes that include char, oak and caramelized tones. It has a light amber color, with an aroma that carries oaky notes, balanced with light vanilla and a hint of brown spice.">

Stave Configuration: (0-P2, 0-CU, 10-46, 0-MO, 0-SP)

Maker's 46 is created by taking fully matured Maker's Mark bourbon and placing it in a barrel with ten charred wooden staves (all 46) in it to create more wood influence, more caramel, more... YUM. The whisky is then aged in these modified barrels for an additional three months to maximize the flavor impact of the staves. We love Maker's 46 and so when the opportunity arose to create our own private barrel, we jumped at it. Here's how it works:

in 2017, the folks at Maker's worked with Independent Stave (one of the largest cooperages in the world) to create four new stave types to add to the existing Maker's 46 stave, for a total of five possible staves to fill ten stave positions:

Baked American Pure 2 (P2)

Seared French Cuvee (CU)

Maker's 46 (46)

Roasted French Mocha (MO)

Toasted French Spice (SP)

By arranging these staves in different configurations, you could develop up to 1,001 different whisky variants. We've done a few of these Private Select barrels, and we've been able to craft dramatically different whiskies using different stave configurations.

During a lunch break on our first trip, I saw a bottle of Maker's 46 Cask Strength for sale in the gift shop and inquired- would it be possible to make a barrel using ONLY the Maker’s 46 staves? Since it was to be bottled at barrel proof, this would essentially be Maker’s Mark 46 Cask Strength Bourbon!!!??? The answer was yes. In fact, at the time, that gift shop bottling was the only way you could get Maker's 46 Cask Strength- a distillery only release made at the direction of Bill Samuels Jr. himself!

I'm pleased to offer you, for the first time outside of the distillery, Maker's Mark Cask Strength!">

"The nose presents hints of plums, candy and papaya and the medium body bears a simple palate with a touch of fruit, tobacco and a pleasant minty backdrop."

This is the newest in a line of outstanding innovative whiskies created by Eddie Russell. In the past several years, Eddie has released some of the oldest Bourbons to come out of Wild Turkey warehouses, a feat that speaks volumes about his skills as Master Distiller. Eddie, a 37-year industry veteran, has mastered the craft of small-batch Bourbon.

Made from a mingling of whiskies aged 15 years, Russell’s Reserve 2002 is a 114.6 barrel proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon. It has a nose of stone fruits, pear, citrus, oak and a hint of white pepper. It features notes of grapefruit, white chocolate and gentle spice with a finish that is long and malty with notes of cream, banana and coconut.">

The Flavor

We sampled many barrels of bourbon to look for the flavors that would combine to make an excellent blend.

From the older Kentucky barrels the flavors of caramel, leather, and wood, with a touch of rose become prevalent.

From Indiana barrels the flavors of soft cherry, a nice mid palette feel and a touch of floral are found.

From Tennessee bourbon notes of caramel, vanilla, and ripe banana are gained.

The Colorado bourbons bring spice such as cinnamon which are found from the bloody butcher corn, and honeysuckle from the Olathe region sweet corn.">

Traverse City is where we're from; a quaint, authentic city in Northern Michigan that has become synonymous with enjoying life

TASTING NOTES: A light aroma with citrus and oak on the nose. The palate is well rounded and balanced, with a medium-long finish and hints of vanilla.">
