Process & Profile

MGP 10 Year Bourbon Chapter One: Out of the Shadows is the inaugural release from MGP’s first namesake consumer brand, bringing whiskey from the historic Lawrenceburg distillery directly to drinkers under the MGP name. Master Distiller Ian Stirsman selectively blended barrels made from the distillery’s historic LBSV mash bill of 60% corn, 36% rye, and 4% malted barley.

The bourbon matured for a full decade inside Rickhouse G, one of MGP Distillery’s most celebrated aging warehouses. Bottled at 111 proof, its high-rye recipe creates a bold balance of dark sweetness, ripe fruit, chocolate, leather, sassafras, and assertive baking spice.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Butterscotch, burnt sugar, dark molasses, ripe cherry, and warming rye spice.

• Palate: Cherry cola, raspberries, dark chocolate, sassafras, leather, brown sugar, and seasoned oak.

• Finish: Long and lingering with cherry cola, sassafras, dark chocolate, and persistent rye spice.

What Makes It Special

• The first whiskey released under MGP’s own namesake consumer brand.

• Introduced as “Chapter One” to mark MGP Distillery’s move from a behind-the-scenes whiskey supplier to a consumer-facing brand.

• Aged for 10 years in the historic Lawrenceburg, Indiana distillery.

• Matured entirely in Rickhouse G, one of MGP’s most recognized aging warehouses.

• Made from MGP’s historic high-rye LBSV mash bill of 60% corn, 36% rye, and 4% malted barley.

• Bottled at 55.5% ABV and 111 proof as a limited-edition release.

How to Enjoy

MGP 10 Year Bourbon Chapter One: Out of the Shadows is best enjoyed neat in a Glencairn or other whiskey glass, allowing its cherry, molasses, butterscotch, chocolate, and rye-spice characteristics to develop. Let the bourbon rest for several minutes after pouring to reveal its deeper fruit and oak notes.

A few drops of water can soften the 111-proof intensity and bring additional raspberry, brown sugar, and sassafras flavors forward. Its high-rye structure also performs well in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan, although the release’s age and historical significance make it especially rewarding as a slow sipping bourbon.
