Bohemian Bourbon Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (47.5% ABV; $38 SRP). Bohemian Bourbon is Pinhook’s 2020 flagship bourbon, crafted using a proprietary mashbill distilled at Castle & Key distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Beginning this month, Bohemian Bourbon will be available for purchase from retailers in 25 states and via Breeze, Pinhook’s new text-to-shop service.
Pinhook was founded in 2010 with the mission to bring the concept of vintages to bourbon and celebrate the tradition of Kentucky horse racing. Until this year, all the brand’s whiskeys came from barrels sourced from Midwest Grain Products (MGP), which were carefully selected and blended to bring forth their best attributes. Every Pinhook vintage honors a unique, promising young thoroughbred at Bourbon Lane Stables, a racing partnership managed by Pinhook affiliate McMahon & Hill. In another first for the brand, Bohemian Bourbon is the only Pinhook vintage to date to feature a filly rather than a colt.
“Pinhook has no target flavor profile, only an ethos to produce the best whiskey with each and every vintage,” says Sean Josephs, Pinhook Taster and co-founder, who oversees the whiskey distillation, barrel selection, blending, and proofing process.
“Distilled with ground-fed, limestone-iltered spring water straight from the source, Bohemian Bourbon joins our portfolio of whiskeys that each represent the best attributes of their respective barrels and have a character as special as the thorough- bred horse on its label.”
