Bourbon Making Process:

Evan Williams Kentucky Straight Bourbon is meticulously crafted using the finest ingredients and a traditional distilling process. The journey begins with carefully selected corn, rye, and malted barley, which are combined into a flavourful mash. This mash is then fermented and distilled to perfection, producing a high-quality distillate known as the “new make”. The spirit is subsequently aged in new, charred oak barrels, allowing the bourbon to develop its distinctive character over time. The precise aging process ensures a harmonious balance of flavours and imparts rich, deep notes that bourbon connoisseurs adore.
