Hard Truth Sweet Mash Bourbon represents a significant milestone for the distillery, as it was the very first whiskey barreled following the establishment of their still in 2018. This bourbon is a true testament to the dedication and craftsmanship of Hard Truth, crafted in the picturesque Brown County, Indiana. Every element of the production process has been meticulously curated, ensuring that nothing is left to chance. With a focus on quality, the distillery employs high-grade Indiana grains and a continuous column still, specifically designed to enhance the bourbon's character.
The sweet mash process, which utilizes entirely fresh ingredients, plays a crucial role in distinguishing this bourbon from others. By avoiding the reuse of previous batches, Hard Truth allows the natural complexities and flavors of the grains to shine through. This approach results in a bourbon that is both rich and nuanced, matured in new, charred American oak barrels that accentuate its vibrant profile. The combination of these elements culminates in a whiskey that reflects the distillery's commitment to excellence and innovation.
