Inspired by Willie Nelson’s 1978 hit song of the same name, Old Whiskey River is an 86 proof, small batch bourbon. According to the brand’s site, the bourbon is handcrafted by seventh and eigth generation master distillers in Bardstown, which is located serendipitously, in Nelson County, Kentucky.
Willie has truly made his mark on the music industry and on the American landscape. In addition to recording over 200 albums, he has been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Country Music Hall of Fame and has also received the prestigious Kennedy Center Honor for preeminent performing artists.
Time will tell if this new Kentucky whiskey can measure up to its namesake.
I have a couple bottles of Willie Whiskey and I was wondering if it is worth more than I paid for it.
