Deerhammer Straight Bourbon features a 4-grain recipe comprised of Colorado corn, San Luis red spring wheat, cold smoked oats, and chocolate malt. This mindful blend harkens towards a classic bourbon, while firmly laying challenge to preconceptions of the style.
Such a unique recipe is furthered with a traditional sour mash, four days of open-air fermentation, direct-fire pot still distillation and finally aged for a minimum of 2.5 years in toasted #2 char virgin oak. The end result is a decisively Colorado bourbon with qualities that echo the signature profile Deerhammer has become known for — deep complexity of flavor and a tremendously enduring finish.
