“The 2024 expression of Yellowstone Limited Edition represents my natural progression of experimenting with special finishes over the years. Now, finished bourbons have become sought after by fans who want to push the flavor profile. I love experimenting and exploring new opportunities, and using a double finish with brandy and cognac casks created a more complex and nuanced bourbon, opening a whole new experience for consumers to enjoy.”
