James E. Pepper Barrel Proof Straight Bourbon Whiskey
About the Spirit
James E. Pepper Barrel Proof Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a standout offering from the historic James E. Pepper Distilling Co., located in Lexington, Kentucky. Revived in the heart of the Kentucky bourbon trail, this distillery channels its rich 19th-century heritage into every bottle. The bourbon is crafted using a blend of their finest and oldest whiskey stocks, expertly balancing youthful vibrancy with mature depth. This dedication to creating a harmonious blend not only reflects their commitment to quality but also nods to the tradition of artisanal bourbon-making. What sets this bourbon apart is the meticulous attention to the barreling and distillation process. Distilled in copper column stills and aged in charred oak barrels, the whiskey embodies the essence of Kentucky's unique environment. The local limestone-filtered water, a key ingredient in bourbon production, imparts an unparalleled purity that elevates the spirit's character. Beyond the exceptional bourbon within, the vintage-inspired decanter-style bottle pays homage to the company’s original 1940s design. Designed to be reused as a decanter, the bottle combines timeless functionality with undeniable style, making it a treasure to keep.
