A newcomer is already making a splash.

A little mystery never hurt anybody, thought Shady Mile when it hit the Kentucky Bourbon scene in 2022 and wouldn’t specify where it is sourcing its Whisky from. But as true detectives that don’t want to be kept in the dark, we have examined all the known facts, which are: (1.) the location at which this Bourbon was barreled and bottled (Owensboro, Kentucky) and (2.) the age of the distillery in question (10th oldest in Kentucky). Through careful examination and most thorough research, we can claim with 99% accuracy that the Bourbon in question was sourced from the Green River Distilling Co, Kentucky, which has smartly recognized we are thirsty for more delicious Bourbon and they have happily obliged. (That we also claim with 99% accuracy).

Their Straight High Wheat Bourbon contains a mashbill of 70% Corn, 21% Wheat, and 9% Malted Barley and was barreled in new charred oak barrels for a minimum of two years before being bottled at an ABV of 45%. This Whiskey has a feisty character of a youngster, but the nicely balanced flavors and the smooth smooth texture that make this one fine Bourbon, worthy of pressing your lips against it.

Bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn.

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.

Limestone Branch Distillery, which produces Yellowstone Bourbon, also makes Minor Case Bourbon and Bowling & Burch Gin.
"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."
Bourbons are very high in vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
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.
