Some 5,000 years ago some clever lad decided to give that sour barley soup, a result of leaving the barley crops out in the rain to soak and then bubble away in the sun for the next few days, an honest try. Little that he know at that time, is that he would inadvertently discover the first fermented beverage—by way of the 'sour mash'.

Sour mashing is how things used to get done, both in the Beer and Whiskey department, and it was a proud tradition. In honor of the tradition still carried out under Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. in the 1800s, this Old Fashioned Sour Mash Bourbon Whiskey was made according to this technique. Allowing the mash to sour naturally for days before distillation, the result is a Bourbon of character and body like none other: floral aroma with an undertone of freshly baked bread, unusually fresh and light honey-like palate, and a clean finish with hints of leather.

Limestone Branch Distillery, which produces Yellowstone Bourbon, also makes Minor Case Bourbon and Bowling & Burch Gin.

J.B.'s father, Joseph W. Dant, invented a still made from a poplar log at 16, as he couldn't afford a copper still. Although crude, it worked exceptionally well!

Sure, Kentucky gets all the press when it comes to Bourbon. And with good reason—nearly 95% of it is produced there. But Bourbon can be made anywhere as long as it's within the United States. Just ask states with budding distilleries like Illinois and New York.
Bourbons have very prominent notes of vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.

Pinhook’s high-proof Bourbon won Gold at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, while the Straight Rye Whiskey won Double Gold the following year. In 2021, their Bourbon War Vertical Series 5 Year and the 2021 Flagship Bourbon won a Gold Medal each, with a Double Gold going to their Tiz Rye Time Vertical Series 5 Year. Pinhook is evidently doing something right!

Bourbon rules refer to manufacturing methods rather than location. Bourbon must be matured in new and charred American white oak casks for at least 2 years. If the bottle has no age statement, the Bourbon is at least 4 years old. No coloring or flavoring of any type is allowed, and the mash bill must contain at least 51% corn.
