About Rabbit Hole Distillery

(From the distillery) Rabbit Hole exists to boldly reimagine the future of American whiskey through its Original Works of Bourbon. Founded by Kaveh Zamanian, a clinical psychologist turned whiskey maker, he set out to develop one-of-a-kind mash bills, signature malted grains, and whiskeys finished in distinctive casks — expressions designed to stand apart. The Rabbit Hole portfolio reflects this ethos through its core offerings — Cavehill Four Grain Triple Malt Bourbon, Boxergrail Straight Rye, Dareringer Sherry Cask Finished Bourbon, and Heigold High Rye Double Malt Bourbon. This philosophy extends to the acclaimed Founder’s Collection and Distillery Series, where rare releases showcase the pinnacle of craft distillation. Located in Louisville’s vibrant NuLu neighborhood, Rabbit Hole Distillery is a modern cathedral to the art and science of whiskey. Since opening in 2018, it has been celebrated as an “Architectural Icon” of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail and named the “World’s Leading Bourbon Distillery Tour” by the World Travel Awards. With its use of one-of-a-kind mash bills, custom-toasted and charred barrels, and uncompromising devotion to detail, Rabbit Hole stands apart as a symbol of modern American whiskey. In 2022, Kaveh was inducted into the Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame, solidifying his place among industry pioneers and visionaries. For more information, visit www.RabbitHoleDistillery.com.
