Rabbit Hole Cavehill Bourbon

Good for: Sipping by the fire

I am from: Louisville, Kentucky

The Story: Louisville, KY, is the home of American distillation. In the twilight of its history, farmers of French and English descent, bubbled mixtures of yeast, water, and corn in handmade stills to make a new spirit - American Whiskey. Some of these pioneers took inspiration from French Brandy and aged their distillate in charred oak barrels creating what we know as “Bourbon” today. For the most part, these operations were just for personal consumption. However, the most daring individuals scaled their productions to a commercial level - planting the seeds from which modern whiskey making has blossomed. Cavehill Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey pays homage to these proud men and women. 

Why You'll Love Me: The nose starts with dried red fruits, drying oak tannins, raspberry jam, and an earthy note. A palate of spiced oak, milk chocolate, caramel, white pepper, and sweet black cherry is followed by a lengthy finish of orange peel, honey, sweet lemon cake, creamy chocolate, and pepper spice. Rich flavors create an easy whiskey to savor.
