Four Grain bourbon is the most complex of all bourbons, yet with a complex recipe comes a harmonious flavor. 4 Grain & Spire begins with a mash bill of 55% corn, 18% rye, 22% wheat, 5% malted barley, then aged in charred American White Oak barrels.
Bourbon distillation is the process of purifying the bourbon by heating and vaporizing it. The vapor, once condensed, is collected to obtain a purer and more concentrated alcoholic substance. Most distillers put bourbon through distillation twice. In the first step, the bourbon goes through column stills.Curt Richardson is the Founder of Old Elk Distillery, Founder, Chairman, and Chief Visionary Officer of Otter Products, LLC, and Co-Founder and Chairman of Blue Ocean Enterprises, Inc.
