Kopper Kettle Virginian Whiskey

Kopper Kettle Virginian Whiskey Wine Details
Price: $21.99 per bottle

Description: Kopper Kettle is a triple grain whiskey, double wood, and twice distilled. The Virginia Whiskey is first produced with grain grown on our farm (the only distillery in the U.S. that grows its own grain). It is a secret formula of corn, wheat, and barley and is mashed and fermented in our all copper fermentation tanks. Then, at just the right time, it is double distilled in our unique potstill. Our Virginia Whiskey, "Kopper Kettle," never sees any modern methods, i.e. column still. Only a potstill can preserve the taste and aroma required for this unique product. Kopper Kettle is then charcoal filtered and presoaked with oak and apple wood chips before it is aged in barrels for two years. Before bottling, the barrels are hand selected in three barrel batches to preserve its uniqueness. Kopper Kettle is definitely a next generation Whiskey.
