Grand Teton Distillery has debuted the ‘8-Year Grand Teton Private Stock Straight Bourbon,’ an aged whiskey among the longest crafted in an Idaho distillery. The whiskey smells of woody maple, and boasts flavors of sweet vanilla with a spiced nut and oak finish. The whiskey has been aged in American white oak barrels at 6,000 feet throughout the most extreme temperatures and comes in a gift box. Grand Teton’s newest ‘Private Stock’ is 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% barley. The expression comes in a 75-ml bottle and is measured at 50% ABV.
