This 100-proof Kentucky straight bourbon begins with a mash bill of 75% corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley. Distilled in August 2008, it spent sixteen years maturing in charred oak barrels. The result is a 100-proof, complex, sweet, light smoky bourbon that (according to the brand) is loaded with flavors like dried cherries, caramelized sugar, tobacco leaves, and other rich, memorable flavors.

“Just like so many others, I consider my father to be one of the greatest,” Stephen Curry said in a press release. “Growing up, my father was an amazing role model to me; he showed me what it means to be a hard worker, have a solid work ethic, and give it your all. I’ve always looked up to him and admired his work ethic and skills so to be able to achieve a milestone that he also accomplished is an amazing feeling. I wanted to bottle this amazing feeling, and share it with the world, and the result was a delectable combination of flavors that came together through the Player Exclusive: Father and Son Edition.”

An expert sets the record straight on bourbon’s biggest myths
It's time to learn the real deal about the worst bourbon myths
Whiskey in a glass

Bourbon might be America’s "native" spirit and one of the most common whiskey varieties you’ll find on the shelf at your local liquor retailer, but what do you really know about this popular spirit? I’ve been writing about alcohol for nearly 20 years. In that time, I’ve learned a lot of information about the various spirits, wines, and beers we drink on a regular basis. But few spirits have as many myths surrounding them as bourbon.

If you listen to your uninformed whiskey purist uncle, he might tell you a tale about what bourbon is, where it can be made, and why Jack Daniel’s absolutely is a bourbon. But is he actually right? Probably not (although we’ll get into the Jack Daniel’s debate a little later). Keep scrolling as I make an attempt at debunking bourbon myths that you may have heard and don't know if you should believe them. To help me out, I turned to Paul Hletko, Founder of FEW Spirits.
