Tasting Notes: Rich cedar, deep leather, and seasoned oak begin the nose, giving it a profile that’s both rich and intense. Luxardo cherry follows, moving into fresh blueberry scone and warm apple cider.

The palate is warm and intense, heavy with baked apples, blackberry compote, semi-sweet chocolate, and spiced oak. The more you sip, the creamier and more expansive it grows, still carrying a heavy dose of mixed berries, cinnamon raisin loaf, and a sweet strand of wildflower honey before turning toward playful, tingly Sweet Tarts candy.

The finish carries those sweet and tart notes forward as a rich, deep cherry note builds from the palate. Date bar, blackstrap rum, and seasoned oak add darker layers, leaving a finish that’s deep, warming, and impressively persistent.

Story: My dad used to tell me stories about growing up in western Kentucky and working the farms. That wasn’t my experience—but a few years ago, it all came full circle when I saw a truckload of Beyke Farms corn being delivered to a distillery. It might’ve been a small role, but knowing my family had a hand in the whiskey industry was fascinating.

Fast forward to today: working with Seelbach’s has introduced me to whiskeys from all across the U.S., and one thing I’ve become obsessed with is a specific heirloom grain—blue corn.

I’m excited to introduce a well-aged, well-crafted blue corn whiskey, made right here in Kentucky.
