Pursuit Bourbon is made through a unique collaboration with distilleries in four different states: Kentucky, Maryland, New York, and Tennessee. This partnership allows Pursuit Spirits to create a diverse range of bourbon expressions by utilizing the expertise and distinct characteristics of each region.
In Kentucky, known as the heartland of bourbon production, Pursuit Spirits partners with a renowned distillery to create one of their mashbills. Kentucky has a long history and tradition of producing high-quality bourbon, with its limestone-rich water and ideal climate for aging whiskey. The barrels from this distillery are aged on-site, allowing them to develop the unique flavors and complexities that are characteristic of Kentucky bourbon.
Moving to Maryland, Pursuit Spirits collaborates with another distillery to create a different mashbill. Maryland has a rich history of whiskey production, and this partnership brings forth the unique flavors and characteristics of the region. The barrels are aged at the distillery in Maryland, where they benefit from the local climate and aging conditions, resulting in a distinct Maryland bourbon.
In New York, Pursuit Spirits partners with a distillery to create yet another mashbill. New York has recently emerged as a hub for craft distilleries, and this collaboration allows Pursuit Bourbon to showcase the innovative and creative flavors that the state has to offer. The barrels are aged at this New York distillery, capturing the essence of the local terroir and contributing to the development of a truly unique New York bourbon.
Last but not least, Pursuit Spirits partners with a distillery in Tennessee. Tennessee is renowned for its production of Tennessee whiskey, which undergoes a charcoal filtration process known as the Lincoln County Process. This collaboration brings a touch of Tennessee whiskey influence to Pursuit Bourbon, adding a distinctive character to the final product. The barrels are aged at the Tennessee distillery, allowing them to absorb the flavors and characteristics of the region.
After the barrels have aged at their respective distilleries, Pursuit Spirits hand-selects them based on their desired flavor profiles and ships them to be united. This meticulous process ensures that each bottle of Pursuit Bourbon embodies the unique qualities and flavors of each region, offering a truly diverse and exceptional drinking experience.
Pursuit Bourbon is made through a collaborative effort across multiple states, each contributing their own expertise and regional characteristics to create a range of bourbon expressions that showcase the best of each location.
