1766 Charles Goodnight Kentucky Straight Bourbon

INFO

Charles Goodnight Straight Bourbon Whiskey is made from Texas-grown corn and water sourced from deep local underground aquifers. The mash bill is packed with rye – 36% to be exact – for a peppery spice to complement the sweetness of the corn. This bold, high rye Texas bourbon is aged in new, charred American white oak barrels for six years in the intense Texas heat for a dark, rich, and hearty character. This unique aging process, when combined with locally sourced water and corn, means Charles Goodnight Whiskey is not just distilled in Texas… it is Texas, distilled.

115 Proof (ABV 57)

The Land
Texas
There is a Different Spirit to Texas.
The dramatic landscapes, the history of pioneering and living off the land, the mindset of ambition and drive converge here. No wonder legends, like everything else, grow bigger in the Lone Star state.

There is Also a Different Spirit in Texas.
Bourbon from this land of extremes stands apart. The blistering heat and cold winters fluctuate in temperature more than other areas. This means more of the maturing whiskey is absorbed and expelled from the charred oak barrels – resulting in a darker, heartier and more intense flavor. In fact, 4 times more Texas Whiskey is lost to “Angel’s Share” than a whiskey aged in Scotland. Further concentrating the sweetness, spiciness and big oak notes.

This unique aging process, when combined with locally sourced water and corn, means Charles Goodnight Whiskey is not just distilled in Texas… it is Texas, distilled.

TASTING NOTES

Delivers toasted caramel aromas, nutty flavors, and a peppery bite.
