This collaboration with Matt Pittman of Meat Church BBQ was crafted to deliver a sweetness as bold as the pit that inspired it. One sip and we think you’ll agree… we ain’t mad at that.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn December 2025, more than 55 gallons of Burleson's Texas Wildflower Honey traveled to the Pursuit Spirits blending facility in Louisville to coat the finishing barrels. Emptying the thick honey from the barrels in the chill of February proved to be an unexpected comedic challenge when the viscous liquid refused to budge.

Coleman and Cecil utilized Kentucky bourbon barrels from Bardstown Bourbon Co. (78% corn, 10% rye, 12% malted barley), meticulously blending them with a Tennessee distilling partner's bourbon (80% corn, 10% rye, 10% malted barley) to represent Pittman’s birth state. The liquid underwent an additional three-month finishing period inside the honey-coated barrels before bottling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pursuit Spirits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55615130828968,"sku":"55615130828968","price":79.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1829\/2275\/files\/WhatsAppImage2026-06-15at9.20.07PM.jpg?v=1781533500","url":"https:\/\/seelbachs.com\/products\/pursuit-x-meat-church-honey-hog-bourbon","provider":"Seelbach's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
