The whiskey with a vintage approach
Bourbon: an American tradition honed over centuries to deliver reliably delicious results. But what if instead of aiming to replicate the same exact product year after year, we embraced each barrel's natural variations to craft a unique whiskey every time, taking our inspiration from how winemakers create annual vintages? That's the question we set out to answer with our novel approach to whiskey-making.

Double Gold & Best in Class Finalist
A decade in the making. The Vertical Series Bourbon 10 Year just took home Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. and earned a Best in Class nomination while it was at it. This is what ten years of patience looks like in a glass.
While it may be sold out, our Big Horse Single Barrel pick of the 10 Year is still available. Same stock, one barrel, no waiting.
Crafted to make the best, not the same, whiskey every year
Every year, a new selection of barrels goes through multiple rounds of thoughtful blending and proofing to achieve the best possible whiskey, a balanced expression that does the American whiskey tradition proud while nudging it in a new direction. Each vintage may vary slightly in proof and tasting notes, but a Pinhook pour is consistently excellent.
