The Hidden Barn Small Batch is produced at the Neeley Family Distillery (DSP-KY-20039) Sparta, KY, with a 70% Corn, 20% Rye, 10% Malted Barley mash bill. The Small Batch is fermented for five days using wild-caught Kentucky yeast and Northern Kentucky aquifer water. It is then double pot distilled and collected at 127 proof. The distillate is then matured in a two-year seasoned American white oak barrel and filled at 110 proof using only a Sediment filter.
Hidden Barn Kentucky Straight Bourbon is a new brand spearheaded by master distiller Royce Neeley of Neeley Family Distillery, Nate Winegar and Matt Dankner of Denver’s 5280 Whiskey Society, and Jackie Zykan, the former master taster of Old Forester. Zykan became well known in the industry, as the driving force behind Old Forester’s flavor profile and face for their marketing for many years. She abruptly left the company after seven years and started Hidden Barn, shocking everyone at Old Forester.
