The aging process in new charred oak barrels adds layers of vanilla, caramel, and oak flavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As it sits in the barrel, the whiskey expands and soaks into the wood staves. This happens repeatedly, imparting the different natural flavors and making bourbon the complex spirit it is known to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For most bourbon, this first barrel is where the complexity ends. However, if a master distiller wants to add even more complexity and other flavors, they can put that bourbon into another barrel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is called finishing or double finishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finishing is a technique used to enhance and refine the flavor of bourbon by transferring it into different barrels for additional aging after the primary aging process. The barrels used for finishing often previously held other spirits or wines, which can significantly alter the bourbon's flavor profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bourbon's primary aging process must occur in new, charred oak barrels (it\u2019s the law). However, once this initial aging is complete, the bourbon can be transferred to barrels that previously housed sherry, port, rum, or even wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This practice is not just about adding new flavors; it\u2019s about creating a balance and adding nuance. The choice of barrel and the duration of the finishing process are critical factors that can dramatically change the final product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The barrels used in the finishing process come in various forms, each contributing unique characteristics to the bourbon. The choice of barrel can reflect the distiller's creativity and intent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sherry casks are among the most popular types used for finishing bourbon. These casks add rich, fruity, and nutty flavors, often giving the bourbon a slightly sweeter and more complex profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finishing bourbon in oak barrels infuses the spirit with additional layers of flavor, such as hints of vanilla, caramel, and spice, as the wood imparts its unique characteristics. This aging process also enhances the bourbon's complexity and smoothness, making it richer and more nuanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone Bourbon Special Finishes Collection Toasted<\/a> uses toasted oak staves in its process. On the palate, this adds walnut, toffee, black tea, and white pepper to the profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rum barrels can impart tropical fruit notes, spice, and a hint of sweetness, making the bourbon more approachable and adding a unique twist to its flavor profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone Bourbon Special Finishes Collection Rum Cask<\/a> provides notes of toasted marshmallow, creme br\u00fbl\u00e9e, toffee, and toasted oak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finishing bourbon in cognac barrels provides the spirit with a rich and complex flavor profile. The process infuses the bourbon with notes of dried fruit, spice, and a subtle sweetness from the cognac, enhancing its depth and adding a luxurious, velvety finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finishing bourbon in brandy barrels adds a distinctive and nuanced flavor to the spirit. The process introduces hints of caramel, dried fruit, and a delicate sweetness from the brandy, enriching the bourbon's complexity. This method results in a smooth and well-rounded finish, appealing to those who appreciate a harmonious blend of flavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wine barrels, particularly those that held red wine, can add tannins, fruitiness, and a touch of acidity. These barrels are less common but offer a distinctive character to the finished bourbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Port casks contribute deep, dark fruit flavors and a silky texture. They can enhance the richness of the bourbon, adding layers of complexity that appeal to seasoned connoisseurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There really is no limit on the types of barrels distillers can use to introduce new flavor notes into their spirits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finishing can profoundly impact the flavor, aroma, and complexity of bourbon. Each type of barrel brings its own set of characteristics, transforming the spirit in subtle or sometimes dramatic ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The additional aging in different barrels infuses the bourbon with new flavors. For example, when finished in a sherry cask, it might take on notes of dried fruit and nuts, while one finished in a rum barrel might exhibit hints of molasses and tropical fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The aroma (or nose) of the bourbon also evolves during the finishing process. The secondary barrels can introduce complex scents like dark chocolate, spice, and berries, enhancing the overall olfactory experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Complexity is perhaps the most significant benefit of finishing. The layers of flavors and aromas resulting from the finishing process create a more intricate and rewarding tasting experience. Each sip reveals new dimensions, making the bourbon more enjoyable to savor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And, over time, this complexity changes as the bourbon \u201copens up\u201d or oxygen is introduced to the bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Learning to appreciate and identify the finishing in bourbons can enhance your tasting experience. It can also help you find more finished bourbons to enjoy whether you drink it neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are some tips to help you get started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many distilleries mention the type of finishing on the label. Look for terms like \"sherry cask finish\" or \"port cask finish\" to get an idea of what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Savor the bourbon slowly. Pay attention to the initial flavors, the mid-palate complexity, and the finish. Notice any new or unusual notes that might indicate the influence of the finishing barrel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Try tasting a finished bourbon alongside a standard expression from the same distillery. For instance, you might try a Yellowstone Select Bourbon<\/a> before trying the Yellowstone Toasted Bourbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Recognizing the similarities and differences will help you build your palate and refine your bourbon senses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The world of bourbon finishing is continually evolving, with new trends and techniques emerging. Here\u2019s a look at what the future might hold:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Distilleries are exploring innovative barrels, such as those that held exotic spirits or wines. These experiments push the boundaries of traditional bourbon flavors and create unique expressions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sustainability is becoming a significant focus. Many distilleries are sourcing barrels from eco-friendly cooperages and using sustainable practices in their production processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Limited edition finished bourbons are gaining popularity. These exclusive releases often feature unique barrel combinations and are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone Limited Edition<\/a> is our annual release. Each year, we take multiple bourbons and double-finish them in a unique cask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2023, the release featured a delicately balanced blend of 7-year, 13-year, and 16-year-old bourbons, finished in Tokaji casks. Tokaji is a traditional sweet wine from Northern Hungary and is made exclusively from white wine grapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finishing in these casks created a final product that featured dry spice followed by caramel, dark cherry, citrus, and white pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 2024 Yellowstone Limited Edition Bourbon blends 7-year-old and 17-year-old bourbons, each aged in Cognac and Brandy casks.

LOUIS (July 29, 2024) \u2013 Limestone Branch Distillery announces the annual release of Yellowstone Bourbon Limited Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Created by Limestone Branch Distillery Master Distiller Stephen Beam, the 2024 expression is extra aged, featuring 7-year and 17-year aged bourbons and Beam\u2019s first double finish in French brandy and cognac casks. Bottled at 101 proof (50.5% ABV), an allocation of 10,000 cases (3-in) of Yellowstone Limited Edition will arrive on shelf in September at a minimum suggested price of $99.99 per 750mL bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Limestone Branch Distillery has released its annual Yellowstone Limited Edition since 2015. In the 2024 release, Beam sought out spirits to complement the natural flavors in the extra-aged bourbon. Finishing the blended bourbon in brandy and cognac casks from France introduces nuances from different spectrums of distilled grapes within the same style of spirit. The result is a soft and approachable bourbon, perfect for Yellowstone bourbon loyalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 2024 Yellowstone Limited Edition is a rich amber color and features the bright aroma of pear, panela sugar, ripe apple and leather. With a thick, soft texture, the body includes flavors of American basswood honey, ripe stone fruits and citrus with traditional notes of caramel and vanilla.

It\u2019s a day when we get to look back at the history of America\u2019s \u201cnative\u201d spirit and take a moment to really appreciate what\u2019s in our glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this article, we discuss the origin of the day while providing a bit of Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey history. We\u2019ll also provide you with a few of our favorite old-fashioned cocktail recipes so that you can enjoy the day in the best way possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bourbon\u2019s origins trace back to the westward migration of settlers from the original colonies during the 18th and 19th centuries. These settlers included Scots-Irish descendants, whose ancestors had invented Scotch and Irish whiskies, as well as English, Welsh, German, and French settlers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From there, multiple whiskey families emerged to shape the entire history of whiskey and bourbon. Two of those families that have direct ties to Limestone Branch Distillery are the Beams and the Dants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stephen Beam opened Limestone Branch Distillery in 2011 with the goal of crafting the finest spirits in small batches. He is a seventh-generation distiller with a history of distilling on both sides of his family\u2014Beam (on his father\u2019s side) and Dant (on his mother\u2019s side).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jacob Beam, Stephen\u2019s great-great-uncle, was a farmer who sold his first barrels of corn whiskey, called Old Jake Beam around 1795.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seven generations later, that tradition continues with Limestone Branch Distillery and Yellowstone Bourbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n National Bourbon Day is a great way to honor that tradition. Every year it\u2019s celebrated on June 14th, which is said to be the anniversary of the day bourbon was first distilled in 1789.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Much like drinking your bourbon and whiskey, you can do it however you want. For us, we like to gather with friends and family, maybe walk around Limestone Branch Distillery, remember those who came before us, and, of course, have a wonderful drink in hand while we do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The exact origins of the Old Fashioned are debated, but the prevailing story is that this iconic drink began being served in the early 1800s. Its name emerged in the mid-1800s as a reaction to the increasingly complex cocktails of the time, which included ingredients like Chartreuse, Absinthe, and Curacao. Traditionalists began asking for a cocktail made in the old-fashioned style\u2014simple and straightforward with just spirit, sugar, water, and bitters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prohibition brought significant changes to the cocktail scene, particularly with the quality of available spirits, which were often harsh due to illegal production methods. To mask these rough edges, bartenders started adding fruit to the Old Fashioned. In the Midwest, muddled orange and cherry became common additions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After Prohibition ended, the quality of spirits improved, allowing the Old Fashioned to return to its roots of showcasing good quality Bourbon or Rye. Interestingly, whiskey was not always the default spirit for an Old Fashioned. When first referenced in the early 1800s, the Old Fashioned was not tied to a specific spirit but was a style of cocktail where the base spirit could be whiskey, gin, or even mezcal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many became familiar with the old-fashioned thanks to it being the drink of choice of Don Draper in the popular series, Mad Men<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many bartenders now view the Old Fashioned as a basic formula that can be adapted to create endless variations. This adaptability is part of what makes it an enduring favorite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone Bourbon, distinguished by its rich palate and Kentucky heritage, is the ideal foundation for crafting the perfect Old Fashioned. Here\u2019s how to bring this beloved classic to life:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to try something different, mix up one of the following instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Add a twist of autumn warmth to your glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Repeat the steps of the classic Old Fashioned, substituting sugar with maple syrup and adding smoke to your glass for extra complexity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Infuse your drink with the zest of citrus and spice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Follow the original procedure, introducing the soaked sugar cube and Angostura orange bitters for a spicy, citrusy undertone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Celebrating National Bourbon Day with Yellowstone Bourbon invites you into a world of tradition enriched with modern twists. Whether you lean towards the classic Old Fashioned or venture into newer variations, each sip is a toast to the enduring legacy of bourbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Find Yellowstone Bourbon near you<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And if you really want to spend the day in the best way possible, join us at Limestone Branch Distillery<\/a> to learn more about America\u2019s favorite spirit.<\/p>\n","post_title":"How to Make the Best Old Fashioneds to Celebrate National Bourbon Day","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"how-to-make-the-best-old-fashioneds-to-celebrate-national-bourbon-day","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-05 20:59:58","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-05 20:59:58","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/yellowstonebourbon.com\/?p=545","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw","ancestors":[],"page_template":"","post_category":[4,9],"tags_input":[],"cc_categories":[{"term_id":4,"name":"Lifestyle","slug":"lifestyle","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":4,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":5,"filter":"raw","object_id":545},{"term_id":9,"name":"Recipes","slug":"recipes","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":9,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":2,"filter":"raw","object_id":545}],"cc_tags":[],"thumbnail":" $40,000 donation by Yellowstone Bourbon will support Trans Canada Trail mission of building, maintaining and stewarding the vast urban and rural trail system in Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n April 22, 2024<\/strong> \u2013 Today, the Yellowstone Bourbon family of brands announces a major new partnership with Trans Canada Trail, as part of its ongoing commitment to connecting people with parks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYellowstone Bourbon has a long history of environmental protection and conservation with its 150-year-old ties to Yellowstone National Park, and we\u2019re proud to make the same commitment on a national scale in Canada with our partners at Trans Canada Trail,\u201d Yellowstone Bourbon Brand Manager Kelly Panzitta said, \u201cTogether, we want to connect people with parks and nature across Canada and inspire them to enjoy the vast trail system by doing the activities they love.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As part of the partnership, Yellowstone Bourbon is making a $40,000CAD contribution to Trans Canada Trail to support its mission to build, maintain and steward the vast urban and rural trail system, which spans more than 28,000 kilometers across land and water \u2013 the longest recreational trail in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"We\u2019re thankful for the support of Yellowstone Bourbon and this new partnership,\u201d TCT said, \u201cOur mission has always prioritized conservation and protection of Canada\u2019s trail system and Yellowstone\u2019s commitments in Canada and the United States exemplify its own mission to support environmental initiatives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Yellowstone Bourbon partnership with the Trans Canada Trail compliments the brand\u2019s 150-year-old roots in Yellowstone National Park after which it was named, its ongoing commitment to protection and conservation of the outdoors, and its partnership with the National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA) in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe\u2019re proud of the heritage we share with America\u2019s first national park and are excited to put our values of preserving parks in action with Canadians across the country,\u201d says Panzitta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Since 2018, Yellowstone Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, of Limestone Branch Distillery in Lebanon, Kentucky, has donated nearly $750,000USD to NPCA to protect and preserve National Parks in The United States.

The resulting bourbon features a flavorful blend of spice and tropical sweetness; a medium body with notes of toasted marshmallow, cr\u00e8me br\u00fbl\u00e9e and toffee toasted oak; and the finish is highlighted by tobacco, clove, cocoa seasoned oak and honey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cRum has the sweetest notes of all the casks we\u2019ve used for secondary finishing, and it was an ideal choice for the next adventure in our Special Finishes Collection,\u201d said Beam. \u201cRum is an exceptional compliment to bourbon, and they come together to create subtle notes of sweetness and brown sugar, which are soaked up and stored within the staves and perfectly complement the vanilla, caramel and rye flavors of Yellowstone.

Because of this, many innovations and spins have been put on this beloved spirit. The rise of the American single malt is one of the most exciting developments in recent years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This article explains American single malt whiskey, how it's distilled, and what differentiates it from the more well-known whiskeys like bourbon, rye, and Scotch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n American single malt whiskey is made from 100% malted barley and distilled in pot stills. The barley is usually locally sourced, and the whiskey is aged in oak barrels for at least two years. Like Scotch, American single malt whiskey is non-blended, meaning that it is made only from a single distillery's output. However, unlike Scotch, there are currently no formal regulations around the production of American single malt whiskey, meaning that distilleries have a great deal of leeway in making and marketing their product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the key differences between American single malt whiskey and other types of whiskey is its flavor profile. Due in part to the use of pot stills in the distillation process, American single malt whiskey often features sweet, nutty, toasty, biscuit, bread, and toffee-like notes. It has a distinctive taste thanks to processed cereal grains that are used. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Though they share some characteristics, American single malt whiskey is different from single malt Scotch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Unlike Bourbon, which must be made with a minimum of 51% corn, American Single Malt Whiskey is made entirely from malted barley. The malted barley is mashed with hot water, releasing the sugars that will help with fermentation. The liquid produced is called \"wort\" and is then fermented with yeast, which converts the sugars into alcohol. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The resulting liquid, or \"wash,\" is then distilled in copper pot stills. The filtered liquid is then aged in oak barrels, giving it a unique flavor. The aging process is what really sets American Single Malt Whiskey apart from other Whiskeys. The Whiskey is usually aged for at least three years, with some distilleries aging it up to 10 years. This results in a smoother and more complex flavor profile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Compared to bourbon, American Single Malt Whiskey tends to be less sweet and more aromatic. Its flavor profile varies by brand, but it typically has hints of vanilla, fruit, and sometimes even chocolate. Its finish tends to be smoother than Bourbon, with a more prolonged, complex aftertaste. Think orchard fruits, honey, and a gentle smokiness more like a cozy campfire than a roaring bonfire like higher-proof whiskeys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone American Single Malt<\/a> blends tradition with innovation. It tells a story of meticulous aging and a commitment to quality. An exploration in taste, it offers layers of caramel, oak, and a hint of fruitiness, balanced with just the right touch of smoke. It's an American original paying homage to the single malt heritage while carving out its identity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone American Single Malt has won multiple awards, including two golds at the 2023 Sip Awards and the 2023 Bartender Spirits Competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Find Yellowstone American Single Malt near you.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n American single malt whiskey is a unique and delicious spirit gaining popularity in the United States. Its rich, complex flavor and artisanal production process make it an exciting addition to the world of premium spirits. Yellowstone offers an authentic and refreshing experience, whether you're a seasoned whiskey enthusiast or are being introduced to the world of single malts for the first time. <\/p>\n","post_title":"What is American Single Malt Whiskey?\u00a0","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"what-is-american-single-malt-whiskey","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-02-15 22:25:08","post_modified_gmt":"2024-02-15 22:25:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/yellowstonebourbon.com\/?p=471","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw","ancestors":[],"page_template":"","post_category":[5],"tags_input":[],"cc_categories":[{"term_id":5,"name":"News","slug":"news","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":5,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":14,"filter":"raw","object_id":471}],"cc_tags":[],"thumbnail":" You likely already have a few favorite whiskey-based holiday cocktails.

Maybe make a double batch\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n A Holiday-Worthy Ham<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Bourbon goes perfectly with the smokiness of ham. Add in some orange and brown sugar, and you\u2019ve got yourself a flavor explosion.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n INGREDIENTS <\/p>\n\n\n\n Combine the ingredients and glaze your ham during the cooking process, applying a coat every 15 minutes or so. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Not Your Average Canned Cranberries<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re a little bored of your average canned cranberries, upgrade this classic holiday side with a bit of booze.

LOUIS (Oct. XX, 2023) \u2013 Yellowstone Bourbon \u2013 the 151-year-old brand now produced at Lebanon, Kentucky-based Limestone Branch Distillery, a stop on the world-famous Kentucky Bourbon Trail\u00ae craft tour \u2013 announced it has rolled out three new ads, along with a new ad-buy strategy to expand its reach. The new ads, which began airing Oct. 1, follow the theme: \u201cAlways keep the park within reach.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSince its inception in 1872, Yellowstone Bourbon has shared a connection with America\u2019s first national park, and we\u2019ve sought to highlight that through our brand story,\u201d said Yellowstone Bourbon Brand Manager Kelly Panzitta. \u201cAs we look to the future of the Yellowstone brand, our focus is on leveraging the bond between our bourbon and the park it was named after.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone Bourbon tapped St. Louis-based Rodgers Townsend to create the new spots. The agency most recently worked with the brand to create the \u201cYellowstone \u2013 For All\u201d campaign, of which the current advertising theme is an extension. The new ads illustrate by choosing Yellowstone \u2013 at the bar or at home \u2013 the spirit of the park is never more than a pour away. The series of new ads was designed to appeal to the brand\u2019s loyal customers, as well as to attract its emerging female audience and younger consumers 21 and older.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The brand team called on media buying agency Ansira to help Yellowstone Bourbon reach a broader audience for the remainder of 2023 and into 2024. Among the changes, Yellowstone has finalized an ad buy with CBS Sports to appear during NFL broadcasts this fall for the first time ever across several platforms. The spot began airing on Oct. 1 on digital, streaming and linear TV. Following is a summary of the schedule:<\/p>\n\n\n\n NFL linear programming on CBS Sports<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf :30 spot in the following NFL games<\/p>\n\n\n\n o Sunday, Oct. 29, at 1 PM: NY Jets v. NY Giants, New England v. Miami, Jacksonville v. Pittsburgh, Atlanta v. Tennessee<\/p>\n\n\n\n o Sunday, Nov. 26, at 1PM: Pittsburgh v. Cincinnati, Jacksonville v. Houston, Tampa Bay v. Indianapolis<\/p>\n\n\n\n o Sunday, Dec. 10, at 1PM: Houston v. NY Jets, Indianapolis v. Cincinnati, Jacksonville v. Cleveland, Tampa Bay v. Atlanta<\/p>\n\n\n\n CBS Sports Live Streaming<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf NFL in game and CBS Sports HQ live stream video (Oct. 1 \u2013 Dec. 31)<\/p>\n\n\n\n CONTINUED<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yellowstone Bourbon to Expand Audience for New Advertising Creative<\/p>\n\n\n\n Oct. XX, 2023 \u2013 Page Two<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are excited to invest in sports to broaden our audience and create greater awareness for the Yellowstone brand. With the NFL\u2019s historical strength reaching the male audience and its growing popularity among women, it was a logical choice,\u201d added Panzitta. \u201cMoving our overall focus to leverage live sporting events has the potential to yield us up to 70 million impressions \u2013 a 282% increase resulting from shifting to the new sports-focused plan. We\u2019re excited to partner with CBS to tell Yellowstone\u2019s story to more consumers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both the whiskey category and the NFL have experienced steady growth in popularity among women. According to Mintel\u2019s Dark Spirits US, 2022 research, the share of women aged 35 to 54 who drink dark spirits increased from 19% in 2019 to 28% in 2022. And according to a February 24, 2023, Sponsorpulse article by Jessa Morris, 53% of American females engage with the NFL. This figure is supported by a 2021 SSRS Sports poll \u2013 referenced in a Nov. 18, 2023, USA TODAY article \u2013 that revealed women and girls made up 46% of the NFL fanbase (ages 8-plus) in the U.S., amounting to 84 million female fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n About Yellowstone Bourbon<\/p>\n\n\n\n Founded by pioneer distiller Joseph Bernard Dant, Yellowstone Bourbon was named for our country\u2019s very first national park in 1872. In 2011, seventh-generation Master Distiller Steve Beam \u2013 a descendant of both the Dant and Beam distilling families \u2013 founded Lebanon, Kentucky-based Limestone Branch Distillery and resurrected the Yellowstone brand with the creation of Yellowstone Select Bourbon. Since then, Yellowstone has been one of the fastest-growing American Whiskey brands in the industry. Today, the Yellowstone family of brands includes Yellowstone Select, Yellowstone Limited Edition and Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey.

LOUIS (July XX, 2023) \u2013 Limestone Branch Distillery Master Distiller Steve Beam announced the 2023 release of Yellowstone Limited Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. This latest bourbon \u2013 featuring a blend of 7-year, 13-year and 16-year aged bourbons finished in Tokaji casks \u2013 was bottled at 101 proof (50.5% ABV), with a limited allocation of 10,000 3-in cases offered nationwide at a suggested retail price of $99.99 per 750 ml bottle starting this August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As he has done with his limited-edition Yellowstone Bourbon offerings since 2015, Beam hand selected the three aged bourbons, which were then blended and finished in Tokaji casks. Tokaji is a traditional sweet wine from the Tokaji region of Hungary made exclusively from white-wine grapes. Tokaji wines are known as much for their complex, layered flavor profiles as they are for their sweetness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWith each year\u2019s Yellowstone Limited Edition offering, I seek a finish that I both personally love and believe will make for a flavorful, well-balanced bourbon. This year, I found the perfect finish in the Tokaji casks sourced from northern Hungary,\u201d said Beam. \u201cConsumers can expect aromas of honey, green grapes and freshly baked cinnamon; a body highlighted by dry spice, followed by caramel, dark cherry, citrus and white pepper; and a finish containing notes of dry tobacco, honeysuckle and smoky oak. Fans of Yellowstone Limited Edition offerings will have a new contender for their favorite!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 2023 Yellowstone Limited Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey features custom designed bottles with embossing, a high-end natural cork and label containing the 2023 Yellowstone Limited Edition emblem and a 101-proof callout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n About Limestone Branch Distillery<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stephen Beam opened Limestone Branch Distillery in 2011, with the goal of crafting the finest spirits in small batches.

over a century of tradition, craft, and heritage distilled into a single glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a tribute to the spirit of exploration and wonder. Today, that legacy continues under the
guidance of Stephen Beam at Limestone Branch Distillery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to the glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n1. It All Starts with the Grain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
whiskey its distinct flavor profile. For Yellowstone, the mash bill consists of 75% open-pollinated
white heirloom corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley. This combination is what helps give
Yellowstone its smooth yet slightly spicy character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
of spice<\/a> and barley contributes to the overall body and depth. This recipe traces its roots back to
notes from Stephen Beam\u2019s grandfather, ensuring that each bottle of Yellowstone Bourbon is
connected to the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n2. Cooking the Mash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
about precision. Yellowstone Bourbon\u2019s mash is cooked using an old-fashioned, three-stage
open cook. The first stage involves boiling the corn at temperatures above 200 degrees to break
down its starches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
then lowered again for the final addition of malted barley. Many large distilleries cook all their
grains together in one step, but Yellowstone\u2019s careful three-stage process allows each grain to
release its distinct flavors, resulting in a more nuanced whiskey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n3. A Family Yeast Strain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
strain used for Yellowstone Bourbon is an extraordinary part of the process. It\u2019s not just any yeast\u2014a strain used by Stephen and Paul Beam\u2019s great-grandfather, reclaimed from a yeast
jug on display at the Oscar Getz Whiskey Museum in Bardstown, Kentucky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sugars into alcohol. The fermentation process lasts around 72 hours, creating what is known as
distillers beer\u2014a liquid with 8% to 10% alcohol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n4. The First Distillation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\u201cstripping run.\u201d In this first distillation, the beer is transformed into what\u2019s known as low wine\u2014an
alcohol-rich liquid containing around 25% to 30% alcohol by volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n5. The Final Distillation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
alembic still. This process, called \"making the cuts,\" involves boiling off various volatile
compounds in stages: the foreshot, the head, the tails, and finally, the heart. The heart of the
distillate is the purest and most flavorful part, and it\u2019s what will ultimately be aged to become
Yellowstone Bourbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n6. Into the Barrels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
each batch of whiskey is placed into new, charred oak barrels. In these barrels, the whiskey
begins its slow transformation, soaking up rich caramel and vanilla notes from the wood over
time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
down to its purest essence. While aging, the whiskey interacts with the charred wood,
deepening in complexity and color. The result is a smooth, balanced bourbon that captures the
rugged beauty and spirit of its namesake, Yellowstone National Park.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nA Tradition of Craftsmanship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
of the most iconic names in bourbon history, and this rich heritage informs every bottle of
Yellowstone Bourbon<\/a>. Whether it\u2019s the carefully curated mash bill or the use of family yeast, the
process behind Yellowstone is steeped in tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
innovation. Revived in 2015 with Yellowstone Select<\/a>, the bourbon has found new life at
Limestone Branch Distillery, where it continues to earn accolades for its craft, quality, and story.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Magic Behind the Bottle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
precise cooking of the grains to the magic of fermentation and distillation, every step is carefully
managed to create a bourbon that stands out in taste and character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
offers tours<\/a>. Visitors can witness firsthand the intricate process behind each bottle, from 200-
year-old artifacts to a taste of the award-winning portfolio. It\u2019s an experience as rich and storied
as the bourbon itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n"},{"ID":612,"post_author":"3","post_date":"2024-08-19 17:38:24","post_date_gmt":"2024-08-19 17:38:24","post_content":"\n
