A special Flaviar Edition of the famous Jefferson’s Ocean Voyage 17 — the “rubber duck” cruise.

Jefferson’s was founded in 1997 by Trey Zoeller and his father Chet — a famed Bourbon historian who wrote the book on Kentucky distilleries. Yes, an actual book called “Bourbon in Kentucky: A History of Distilleries in Kentucky.” And eight generations ago, their great-great-grandmother was arrested for the “production and sales of spiritous liquors” in 1799. Which makes her the coolest ancestor ever! They acquire and produce a range of specialty Bourbons and Rye Whiskies. In 2007 Jefferson’s was sold to Castle Brands to build portfolio of premium Spirits.

To review some of the details, the Ocean Voyage series was launched in 2012. Casks of Bourbon aged from six to eight years are bended, re-barreled, and put on board a ship for finishing. They spend months sailing around the world on cargo ships in the neat, cold, and constant motion of the sea. Each voyage takes a different route and contains a different blend.

Flaviar has partnered with Jefferson’s for a special Flaviar Edition of hand-selected casks from Voyage 17. It’s comprised of small-batch, Kentucky Bourbons aged seven and eight years on land before going to sea for four to five months and bottled at 45% ABV. Supply is limited to 144 bottles!

Smartass corner:
Years ago a container ship lost a cargo of children’s bath toys during a storm — rubber ducks and other toys. Tens of thousands of the toy were released into the sea. When Voyage 17 departed Tacoma, Washington on the first leg of its journey the crew came upon a remnant group of these toys still adrift.

Bourbons are very high in vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
Bourbon was declared "The Official Spirit of America" by an Act of Congress signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
Bourbon Is a ''new barrel Spirit'': One of the legal requirements for Bourbon is that it only be aged in brand new oak charred barrels.
Straight Bourbon must be matured for at least 2 years. If a bottle has no age statement, it’s at least 4 years old.
"Remember that iconic poster from World War II showing Rosie the Riveter as a patriotic American woman doing her part for the war effort? Well, hundreds of businesses did their part too, and the Bourbon distillers stepped right up with ‘em.

Distilleries all over Kentucky and Tennessee were re-tooled to distill fuel alcohol and ferment penicillin cultures to treat wounded soldiers."
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.
