Jefferson’s Ocean New York Edition

Jefferson’s Aged at Sea just launched a New York-only whiskey that’s proofed down with the state’s special H2O.

A Kentucky distillery that’s been experimenting with the maturation process of whiskey for 25 years. With their Aged at Sea releases, matured bourbon (usually about 6-8 years old) is placed in small barrels and loaded onto special cargo ships; from there, the whiskey sails around the globe through different seasons, extreme temperature fluctuations, and with a lot of agitation from the ocean.

Basically, once the barrels for Aged at Sea finish their journey, they take a slight detour up to Manhattan, where the bourbon (at 120 proof) is cut to 98 proof with …aka, the liquid that makes NY’s pizza and bagels so special.  -Inside Hook
