Process & Profile

RD1 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished With Brazilian Amburana Wood begins as a traditional Kentucky straight bourbon aged for a minimum of four years in new charred American oak. Once fully matured, it undergoes a secondary finishing stage using honeycomb-cut Brazilian Amburana wood staves, a rare and aromatically intense finishing wood. This approach draws out warming spice, baked-good sweetness, and unique aromatic depth not found in standard oak. Bottled at 55% ABV (110 proof), it delivers an assertive, full-flavored expression that preserves the richness of the finishing process.
