The spirit that inspired it all was Bear Creek Distillery’s Rye Whiskey. This is one of my very favorite spirits that I have come to love in the short time I’ve been working there. We had also recently came out with an age your own whiskey kit that came with White Whiskey. This sparked an idea in my head of creating something that would showcase more of our spirits down the line, but chose to start off with just one spirit. Knowing I wanted to come up with a creative package that people would want to keep I thought what could possibly be better than a barrel?
