Abraham Bowman whiskey is named after the commander of the 8th Virginia Regiment in the American Revolutionary War. Like Abraham, the founder's goal was to pursue great innovation. Each release in the Abraham Bowman series features distinct characteristics, with several new versions launched annually. The Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Bourbon is available to Virginia residents through the VA ABC lottery. Quantities are extremely limited. The Abraham Bowman series is designed to release new and innovative whiskeys in different forms with each issuance, making it unlikely to repeat the same product. This bourbon is typically aged for 14.5 years and bottled at 146.1 proof.
