Bourbon is as American as Baseball, and the methods used by Kentucky Bourbon Distillers, Ltd., purveyors of the Johnny Drum Collection, is the Honest Abe when it comes to authentic distilling methods.

This old fashioned sour mash is made from the finest ingredients in Kentucky Bluegrass country, and has used the same recipe through 5 generations of master distillers.

Johnny Drum is produced in very small batches in order to provide an unmatched level of quality control. This is an exquisitely graceful bourbon.
The Big Q: What makes Bourbon Bourbon?

The Big A: the first things to keep in mind, and it is said often in Kentucky, is that all Bourbons are Whiskey, but not all Whiskies are Bourbon. To be called Bourbon, the following criteria must be met:

1. The primary ingredient must be corn (at least 51%);

2. Must be distilled at no greater than 160 Proof;

3. Only new, charred, White Oak barrels should be used for aging;

4. Be aged at least 2 yrs to be called a Straight Bourbon Whiskey;

5. The spirit must go into the barrel at no more than 125 Proof, and

6, Water and only water can be added to adjust the Bourbon to the appropriate bottling strength.
