Deadwood Bourbon Whiskey
Deadwood American Bourbon is a new project from Dave Schmier, longtime spirits authority and co-founder of the Redemption line of bourbons and whiskies. Schmier entered the industry in 1991, beginning in restaurant serview before transitioning to spirits marketing. After nearly a decade as an industry consultant, Schmier formed Bardstown Barrel Selections in 2010 with Michael Kanbar, soon leading to the release of the Redemption line, and today's Deadwood Whiskies. Like Schmier's other projects, Deadwood Bourbon is distilled in small batches in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, before being bottled in Bardstown, Kentucky.
Deadwood is named for a town in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The 1874 discovery of gold led to a population boom and a thriving saloon business, which thrived based largely upon whiskey. Frontier legend Wild Bill Hickok was famously shot dead while playing poker in Deadwood. His four cards showing were two aces and two eights, forever after know as the Deadman's hand, so depicted on Deadwood's label. this is classic "American Table Whiskey", bottled at an approachable 81 Proof, perfect for cocktails and everyday sipping.
