W.H. McBrayer 2024 Release

Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Barrel Strength

Batch 4: Legacy Collection – Original Recipe | Collector’s Edition

This Bourbon is the McBrayer family’s tribute to one of Kentucky’s founding distillers: W.H. McBrayer, who was otherwise known as “The Judge.” Using heirloom grains grown only a few miles from his original distillery, this spirit was carefully crafted to honor the superior quality that earned “The Judge’’ his worldwide whiskey reputation. 

To replicate his highly-coveted recipe, we used McBrayer’s original mash bill, which was discovered on the back of a handwritten letter he wrote to E.H. Taylor in 1870. 

Locally-sourced corn, rye and malted barley pay homage to the land where his distilling legacy took root, while a low barrel entry proof and non-chill filtration capture the full flavor and character of our distinctive Kentucky Bourbon.

Mash Bill:
88.4% Bloody Butcher Corn
5.8% Heritage Rye
5.8% Malted Barley
