An experiment in wood science and time poured neat from Jefferson’s.

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 great-great-grandmother ever! They acquire and produce a range of specialty Bourbons and Rye Whiskeys, pushing the boundaries of Bourbon whilst preserving tradition. In 2007, Jefferson’s was sold to Castle Brands as they build their own liquor empire portfolio of premium Spirits.

Jefferson’s Twin Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon was born in August 2018. They partnered with Independent Stave Company, which is a family-owned cooperage in Missouri, to have custom barrels made with deep grooves cut into the inside of the casks to increase surface area before slow-toasting and flash-charring them inside. This creates more surface area inside the barrel, hence, more intensive aging. They took the 10 Year Old Jefferson’s signature Bourbon and finished it in these casks for four months before bottling it up at wonderful 45.1% ABV.

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!

Speaking of breeding winner horses, two of Pinhook’s co-founders have horseracing in their DNA. Jamie Hill and Mike McMahon continue the tradition of their families as third-generation horsemen, owning a bloodstock agency and a thoroughbred racing company. Applying that knowledge to Whiskey just made sense.
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.
Some ancient 18th century pieces are actually used in modern production in the Kentucky distillery.
At any given time, there are more barrels of Bourbon in Kentucky than there are people. The population of the Bluegrass State is about 4.4 million. Today there are more than 5 million barrels of Bourbon sitting in the rick-houses of that Old Kentucky Home. That’s nearly 300 bottles of Bourbon per person, or about 60 gallons each.
Bourbons are very high in vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
