While this whiskey was made in Indiana, Spirits Of French Lick isn't just another bottler of MGP products: they are a bona fide distillery that sources locally grown grains and distills and matures the whiskey themselves. That is almost a quaint notion in this day and age, isn't it?
The Mash Bill for The Mattie Gladden Bottled in Bond Bourbon is low corn and high rye: 55% Corn, 35% Rye, and 10% Victory Malt. The mash is fermented with two yeast strains and the focus is on putting the grain notes first and letting the fruit notes come along for the ride. After distillation, the resulting spirit is aged for at least four years before being bottled at 100 proof, or 50% ABV, as the Bottled in Bond act of 1897 states it must be.
