Kings County Distillery, New York's oldest operating whiskey distillery, uses New York-grown grains and traditional equipment to craft its distinctive spirits. Kings County Bourbon starts from a mash of New York-grown organic corn and malted barley from the U.K., and after distillation, gets aged in charred virgin American oak. The Peated Bourbon meets American bourbon standards but gains an extra layer of complexity from exposure to peat smoke. The distillery also offers Barrel-Strength Bourbon, Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon and a unique Chocolate Whiskey infused with locally sourced cocoa bean husks.
