Brush Creek Distillery Unveils Heroes Edition Straight Bourbon Whiskey

In time for the July 4th holiday, Brush Creek Distillery, a small-batch distillery set on a 30,000-acre working cattle ranch in the Wyoming wilderness, has unveiled its inaugural batch of Heroes Edition Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

This unique single-barrel selection of straight bourbon whiskeys celebrates the everyday heroes of yesterday, today and tomorrow that surround us.

This product is a well-matured blend of Crimson Red, Blue, and White Corn Bourbon born and matured in Indiana, and further rested at the Distilery's Saratoga location, along Wyoming’s majestic elevated western frontier. The flavors result in a truly patriotic composition, reflective of the Distillery's love of country and the American West, and pair perfectly with a barbecue.
