Bottles and VIP tours are available at the Kentucky-based distillery from Friday, July 21.
Following on from the expansion of Green River Distilling Co.’s distribution into 25 states earlier this year and the successful launch of both a flagship and wheated bourbon, the distillery will release its first publicly available Green River Full Proof Single Barrel, Head Distiller’s Pick #1 on Friday, July 21.
Green River Full Proof Single Barrel, a single barrel expression of Green River Kentucky Straight Bourbon is presented at 119 proof (59.5% abv). Selected from Warehouse B by head distiller Aaron Harris, this first release offers a rousing blend of spirituous vanilla and baking spices, coating the palete with creamy honey and a distinct finish . Subsequent single barrels will be released at the distillery gift shop at various times throughout the year.
A limited number of single barrels will be available annually for purchase by the barrel to select on- and off-premise retailers. Each retailer will be able to hand-select their unique single barrel on-site at the historic Green River Distillery in Owensboro, Ky. Green River Full Proof Single Barrel is offered at a suggested retail price of $59.99.
“I spend a lot of time perusing the finest barrels in a
Score of Green River rickhouses,” said Harris. “Warehouse B is loaded with honey barrels, and this initial release is no exception. We’re excited to welcome guests to historic Owensboro for a unique selection experience.”
