For this Story Series release, we start with Oaklore’s traditional four grain bourbon, which is crafted by our sister distilleries in North Carolina. Distilled on 24-inch Vendome all-copper column stills, the Four Grain Bourbon uses “the big four” American Whiskey grains (corn, wheat, barley & rye). The whiskey combines the best five- to six-year-old barrels of wheated bourbon and rye bourbon mash bills, which are aged separately, hand-selected, and then batched together – producing a final mash bill of 70% corn, 10% rye, 10% wheat, and 10% malted barley. Then, our master blender transferred the whiskey into Spanish Oloroso Sherry Barrels where it rested for 12 to 18 months – picking up the gorgeous Mediterranean flavors and influence inherent to Oloroso Sherry Casks.

This North Carolina story is a small batch of the best rye whiskey barrels this state has to offer. Aged 6+ years, this straight rye whiskey sets the mark for North Carolina rye. Check out our Single barrel selections, available at our distillery.
