Jefferson's Ocean Aged at Sea Rye Whiskey

Founded in 1997, Jefferson’s is the brainchild of Trey Zoeller and his father Chet, a famed bourbon historian. They were continuing a family whiskey tradition that goes back to Trey’s 8th generation grandmother who was arrested in 1799 for the “production and sales of spirituous liquors.” His curious and experimental mindset has allowed him to push the boundaries of bourbon whiskey. Upholding tradition, yet always discovering new possibilities. Jefferson's Ocean Rye is the 1st ultra premium rye that ages its barrels aboard ships that travel the world's seas. This unique rye whiskey is aged in both new char and toasted barrels before being placed on ships. The constant motion of the sea churns the whiskey, increasing its interaction with the wood of the barrel. In addition to this unique aging process, the rye whiskey is then non-chill filtered to bring an even fuller flavor profile.
