This special edition Straight Bourbon Whiskey is the oldest release from Backwards Distilling Company to date. It is a carefully blended batch of three barrels all between 7 and 9 years old. The result is a beautifully rich and complex expression that captures both the classic bourbon character and the spirit of the wild west in one bottle.

Description

• 40% ABV
• Softer, sweeter, and smoother than a bourbon
• We combine barrels of 4+ year old bourbon with barrels of wheat whiskey to marry together the best both styles of whiskies have to offer
• Both whiskies are made from scratch and aged to maturity on site in full sized, 53-gallon barrels
• The barrels are made classically, with air seasoned staves, and are toasted and then charred
• After the two whiskies are mixed together, the batch is finished with toasted oak to further enhance the flavor profile
