High Wire Distilling - Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750ml

Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a profound expression of the American South, rooted in a dramatic story of agricultural revival. Produced by High Wire Distilling in downtown Charleston, this bourbon is crafted from a legendary heirloom grain that was rescued from near extinction. The highly sought-after Jimmy Red corn, once the favored grain of moonshiners, was dwindled to just two cobs before being saved by a local seed steward. High Wire's dedication to this grain connects them to the deepest traditions of the South Carolina Lowcountry.

The distillery's commitment to this unique heritage is evident in the whiskey's complexity. The pure, flavorful character of the Jimmy Red corn shines through, providing an aromatic profile praised for its depth. It is aged to straight bourbon standards, resulting in a 95-proof whiskey that has earned high acclaim. The taste is incredibly compelling, with prominent notes of graham, vanilla, cinnamon, and maple, carried by an exceptionally creamy mouthfeel. This bourbon is not merely a spirit; it is a collaborative act of respect for forgotten foodways, offering a uniquely rich flavor that could not exist anywhere else.
