KY-born Bourbon, raised in D.C.

The town of Bardstown, Kentucky, has Bourbon in its DNA and the residents call it the Bourbon Capital of the World. It's no coincidence as several distilleries make the air smell delicious around town. That's where this astounding Bourbon is born. 600 miles west is where it gets its character and identity. The women-owned establishment of Republic Restoratives stands in the heart of Washington, D.C. and next to the distillery where all the magic happens, is also the hottest watering hole of the capital. Their philosophy is creating Spirits that people really enjoy, no matter how they drink them. For them, cocktails are the glue of communities, and their Head Distiller Kevin makes sure what comes out of the barrels is always tip-top.

Borough Bourbon Batch 02 finds itself on a Spiritual journey from west to east, where it ends up in Barbados Rum casks for a sweet finish. The second offering has a sweet caramel nose and a rounded palate, with a long and lavish finish.

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.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Bourbons are very high in vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
Straight Bourbon must be matured for at least 2 years. If a bottle has no age statement, it’s at least 4 years old.

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!

Pinhooking means purchasing and rearing a foal based on its pedigree and either selling it or turning it into a champ racing horse. The same idea is behind Pinhook Bourbon: they source young Whiskey to mature and blend it into a blue-ribbon sipping Bourbon.
