Redwood Empire Grizzly Beast BIB Bourbon

This rare whiskey was bottled under the strict guidelines of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. Aged in the temperate climate of the Northern California coast, the original distillate was altered only by the addition of pure water from the Russian River Valley aquifer. This is the purest expression of Redwood Empire’s craft.
