Detailed DescriptionThis straight bourbon whiskey was named after Joseph Washington Dant, a Kentucky distiller during the 1830s who supposedly fashioned a still out of a hollowed out tree trunk (because copper stills were expensive). It’s distilled using a sour mash process and bottled by the Heaven Hill-owned Dant Distillery Company in Bardstown, Kentucky. Like all “Bottled in Bond” whiskeys, this is made by one distiller, during the same distilling season (or calendar year), aged for at least 4 years in a bonded US government warehouse, and bottled at 100 proof.J.W.

Plenty of oak shavings, accompanied by vanilla.Palate: he palate is creamy and, surprisingly, has a pinch of salt. Again, the oak is omnipresent. Luckily there’s some bitter oranges and soft spices to alleviate.Finish: The finish is long and spicy.Distillery InformationHeaven Hill Distilleries, Inc., the nation’s largest family owned and operated distilled spirits company, today announced it has acquired the worldwide rights to the Admiral Nelson’s family of rums from Luxco, Inc.
