Yellowstone Select Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 46.5% 750ml

J.B. Dant (son of J.W.) teamed up with D.H. Taylor and J.T. Williams to found the Yellowstone Distillery and bottle Yellowstone Bourbon sometime in the 1880s. Glenmore bought the distillery in 1944. It became one of the biggest selling Bourbons in Kentucky during the 1960s. Diageo (formerly UDV) bought Glenmore in the early 1990s and promptly shut it down and sold off the Ezra Brooks and Yellowstone brands. In 1993, it was again sold on to Heaven Hill and later, to David Sherman. In 2006, the David Sherman Company rebranded itself as 'Luxco'. In 2010, Paul and Steve Beam (descendants of both J.W. Dant and the Beam family) founded Limestone Branch Distillery, and in 2015, they partnered with Luxco to bring the Yellowstone brand back to its ancestral origins.

Nature lovers will recognise Yellowstone's namesake - the world's first national park - a curious title given its location some considerable distance west of Kentucky. The label depicts one of the park's famous geysers, 'Old Faithful'.

'Select' is reportedly a blend of 4-7 year old whiskeys, weighing in at a higher proof than the entry level Yellowstone. 46.5% Alc./Vol.
