Jefferson’s Bourbon is a whiskey crafted with a dedication to excellence, where traditional methods meet innovation. With a legacy of whiskey-making mastery that dates back centuries, their artistry goes above and beyond the ordinary. But what sets them apart are their daring aging techniques.
Picture barrels of bourbon that are aged aboard ships that traverse the world’s oceans for six months. The constant swaying of the waves and temperature fluctuations combine to hasten the maturation process, imbuing each sip with a unique oceanic flair. Jefferson’s Bourbon is not just a drink, but a journey, a symphony of flavors conducted by the sea itself.
Jefferson’s Journey
This is no ordinary journey, and the result of it will be no ordinary bourbon. For the first time in over a hundred years, the famed spirit will take a trip that hasn’t been made since the beginning of bourbon…
With the success of Jefferson’s Ocean, a bourbon aged at sea, CEO Trey Zoeller decided to recreate (and celebrate) bourbon’s first voyage. In the beginning, bourbon was shipped from Kentucky, all the way down to the ports of New Orleans, where it then continued all the way back up north to New York for shipment across the globe. We’re going to recreate that journey exactly. We’ve strapped two barrels of the finest bourbon you can make to a boat, and we’re floating it down the river from Louisville to New Orleans, where it will then continue on to Key West and then finally to New York.
