1792 Small Batch Bourbon is a testament to Kentucky whiskey-making excellence, named for the year Kentucky joined the Union. Crafted at the historic Barton 1792 Distillery with over 225 years of heritage, this high-rye bourbon stands apart through its meticulous small-batch production. Using a distinctive mash bill featuring an unusually high proportion of rye grain alongside corn and malted barley, each batch is carefully curated by our Master Distiller from select barrels aged in optimal warehouse positions. The result is a remarkably complex and sophisticated spirit that balances bold spice character with elegant fruit notes, rich caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak. 1792 Bourbon delivers an expressive flavor profile with exceptional depth, showcasing cinnamon, pepper, and dried fruit on the palate, leading to a long, refined finish that exemplifies both power and grace.
