Augusta Distillery refers to the launch of nationwide shopping as an extension of its “cask-to-connoisseur experience.” Previously, bourbon aficionados could only purchase bottles in Kentucky and at select whisky retailers. Now, you can ship bottles to 43 states (sorry, South Dakota, Utah, Arizona, Alaska, Alabama, Massachusetts, and Hawaii)

“Expanding our shipping availability is an exciting step in bringing our exceptional bourbons to a wider audience,” Ryan Edwards, president of Augusta Distillery, said in a press release.

“We’re proud to make our craft more accessible while preserving the integrity and quality of every bottle we produce.”

This memorable whiskey begins with a mash bill of 70% rye, 20% corn, and 10% malted barley (it’s the same as the brand’s signature 6-year-old straight rye whiskey). It’s first matured for six years in a combination of char #2 and char #3 new, white oak barrels. It’s then transferred to ex-port wine barrels for another twelve to eighteen months of finishing.
