How do you celebrate 250 years of America. With a Bourbon with every state represented. Just wait there is so much more. I need you to just listen and get into it. AND I'M SORRY NEBRASKA I COULDN'T REMEMBER YOUR ABBREVIATION. [Lostlanternwhiskey.com](Lostlanternwhiskey.com) [Patreon.com/offtopicwhiskey](Patreon.com/offtopicwhiskey) 50 States. 50 Distilleries. One Bourbon. This first-of-its-kind release is a blend of straight bourbon whiskies from all 50 states. For this special blend, we brought together some of the finest distilleries in the country, all of which we have personally visited. Blended in Vermont and bottled at cask strength, this whiskey proves that great bourbon comes from all across the United States. Each state is represented by just one distillery, and all 50 distilleries are listed on the back label. Rich wood spice and vanilla on the nose, with hints of nutmeg and clove. Rich depth with a lot of complexity. On the palate, oak, spice, and fruit intermingle into a deep and balanced whole, with notes of black raspberry, dark chocolate, and leather.

We love hunting down whiskies that people haven’t discovered yet and sharing the stories of the distilleries we’re most excited about. Ultimately, we just want to share what makes the world of American whiskey so exciting. Our Mission Shining a light on the independent spirit is our tagline. It’s also our mission. That means we spend the time to truly explore and understand the landscape of American whiskey. We find unique and exciting whiskies from every corner of the United States. And we tell the stories of these distilleries and why whiskey lovers should know about what they’re doing. Transparency is very important to us. We don’t distill whiskey. We never will. Sourcing whiskey is the whole point! And we want you to know exactly where it came from, and why we chose to work with that place, and why their whiskey is unique.
