Old Elk Sour Mash Reserve Straight Bourbon is the result of a passion-driven collaboration between Old Elk Distillery and Master Distiller Greg Metze. The aim was to create a timeless bourbon recipe and innovative process that elevates the bourbon landscape. This top-shelf bourbon is the refined and enhanced version of the Old Elk bourbon recipe.

Old Elk Distillery is a production facility with a vision to open a larger distillery in Colorado. To ensure the quality and consistency of their barrel-aged blended bourbon, they worked with three key partners to help age and blend the bourbon whiskey. Each Old Elk Bourbon barrel is hand-selected by their distilling team, using sensory and sampling criteria to ensure a consistent blended profile year after year.
