Discover the authentic taste of Kentucky craftsmanship with Green River Honey Finished Bourbon. Stripping away the shortcuts, syrups, and artificial flavorings, this release offers a pure, unadulterated take on flavored whiskey. The process is remarkably simple but undeniably effective: real bourbon meets real, locally sourced honey, poured straight into the barrel to let time do the heavy lifting. The result is a beautifully natural, robust spirit that is "real bourbon, real honey, real good"—now available at Nestor Liquor.
The foundation of this exceptional release is a classic, four-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon. By infusing it naturally in the cask, the honey integrates seamlessly rather than masking the spirit's true character. Bottled at a sturdy 92 Proof (46% ABV), it maintains a bold bourbon backbone that perfectly supports the decadent, full-bodied sweetness of the honey, making it ideal for sipping neat, over a large ice cube, or in a premium Gold Rush cocktail.
