Process & Profile
Isaac Bowman Port Barrel Finished Straight Bourbon is a distinctive Virginia-made whiskey that blends tradition with innovation. Distilled initially at Buffalo Trace and re-distilled at the A. Smith Bowman Distillery in Fredericksburg, Virginia, this bourbon is aged in new, charred American oak barrels before being finished in both American and French oak port wine barrels. This finishing process imparts deep red fruit character and dessert-like richness to an already well-rounded straight bourbon profile.
