Jefferson's Wood Experiment Collection Bourbon

Jefferson's Wood Experiment Collection Bourbon is an innovative Kentucky whiskey project that showcases how small changes in wood treatment can dramatically influence flavor. Produced in Louisville, Kentucky, by Jefferson's under Castle Brands, this bourbon contains 46% alcohol by volume (ABV). It is presented as five 200 milliliter experimental bottlings, each highlighting a unique maturation approach.

Over a period of 32 months, Jefferson explored various wood treatments, including aging in new bourbon barrels, finishing in new wine barrels, using wine barrel heads on bourbon casks, adding seared oak staves, and incorporating slow-cooked oak cubes. Each experiment was carefully charted and analyzed to reveal how these variations in wood and technique impact the aroma, taste, and texture of the whiskey.

The result is a collection that allows whiskey lovers to experience and compare five distinct flavor profiles side by side, deepening appreciation for the craft of bourbon making. Jefferson's Wood Experiment Collection Bourbon offers both education and enjoyment, making it a distinctive addition for those who value exploration and innovation in whiskey.
