Fort Hamilton Bourbon
Small-batch bourbon and rye, kept in stock by the bottle.
The story behind Fort Hamilton
Bourbon is an American whiskey made mostly from corn and aged in new charred oak barrels, which is where the vanilla, caramel and toasted wood notes come from. Rye whiskey leans on rye grain for a spicier, drier profile with pepper and herbal edges. Both are straight whiskeys, meaning at least two years in the barrel with nothing added.
