Our Kansas City Whiskey celebrates this history by taking some of the finest
American Straight Whiskies, all aged for a minimum of 4 years, including
Bourbon, Rye and Light Corn Whiskeys, then adding a spectacular 15-year-old
Oloroso from one of the most revered wineries in Jerez. It is our goal to
showcase the extraordinary quality American Whiskey in our blend, while
introducing a classic element in the production process. As the first producer
to revitalize the practice of adding Sherry into whiskey, we’ve created an
entirely new category of American Whiskey, Kansas City style.
