Process & Profile

Rod & Hammer’s Straight Bourbon Whiskey is crafted in California using traditional American bourbon methods with a coastal twist. Distilled from a mash bill rich in corn and balanced with rye and malted barley, the bourbon is aged a minimum of two years in new charred American oak barrels. The aging process takes place on the California coast, where the cool marine air subtly influences the whiskey’s flavor. Before bottling, the spirit is cut with purified Pacific Ocean water, a signature touch that sets Rod & Hammer’s apart.
