Straight Bourbon Whiskey (700 ml)

Moonshine Runners channels the unregulated bourbon tradition of Kentucky's backwoods distillers, translating that outlaw spirit into a legal, bottled expression. The brand name references the Prohibition-era runners who moved whiskey through the state's hollows and back roads—a lineage the distillery honors through uncompromising production choices.

Produced in Kentucky, this straight bourbon adheres to federal standards: minimum 51% corn in the mash bill, aged in new charred American oak barrels, and bottled at barrel proof to preserve the full intensity of wood extraction and fermentation character. The high-rye recipe (exact proportions undisclosed by the producer) introduces spice and grip where lower-rye bourbons soften. Pot-still distillation and minimal chill-filtration retain the full aromatic and textural complexity developed during maturation.

Barrel-proof bottling—the defining technical choice—means no water reduction post-barrel, preserving the exact spirit-to-wood interaction without dilution. This approach demands patience on the palate; the alcohol burn recedes to reveal layered oak tannin, grain sweetness, and fermentation esters.

No age statement provided by the producer; drink neat or with a single ice cube to open the mid-palate.
