Kentucky
Bill And Mike’s Excellent Adventure Age: 7-Years 4-months Mash Bill: 65/20/12/3 Hickory Cane White Corn/Rye/Distiller's Malt/Chocolate Malt proof Source: Kentucky Artisan Distillery Barrel: Heavy Toast, Char no. 3 Barrel Entry proof; Industry average is 125 proof Story: My grandfather made moonshine in Barren County during the Depression, using what he had—Hickory Cane white corn. People at his funeral swore he made the best moonshine around, and that story has stuck with me ever since. I’ve always wanted to make bourbon using that same corn. During a visit to Kentucky Artisan Distillery, Stephen Thompson encouraged me to bring the idea to life, and later Bill Thomas, owner of Jack Rose in D.C., offered to back the project and sell it at his bar. With his support and Jade Peterson’s expertise as distiller, we began what I like to call.
