- Description
- Green River's Kentucky straight bourbon, revived in 2022 after a century-long absence, draws character from a mash bill heavy in corn with a generous 21% winter rye and 9% malted barley. Aged in some of Kentucky's oldest warehouses, the high rye content delivers warming spice layered beneath silky caramel and oaken vanilla. Bottled at 45% ABV with a creamy texture and satisfying depth, this is a well-balanced bourbon suited to sipping neat or as the foundation of a classic cocktail.
