Leiper’s Fork Tennessee Whiskey Bottle In Bond

Leiper’s Fork Tennessee Whiskey Bottle in Bond is a 5-year-old Tennessee whiskey bottled at 100 proof under the Bottled in Bond designation — produced entirely from 100% local, non-GMO grain with corn grown on the Chief Distiller’s own farm, mashed, fermented, distilled, aged, and bottled on-site, pot distilled for a pre-Prohibition style character and non-chill filtered for maximum mouthfeel.

Leiper’s Fork Distillery in Williamson County, Tennessee was built on the conviction that grain sourcing and on-site production control make better whiskey. The corn from the Chief Distiller’s farm and 100% local non-GMO grain means full traceability from field to bottle. The pot still production at 137 proof distillation (low by commercial standards) preserves more congeners and flavor compounds than high-efficiency column still production. Toasted barley malt adds a deeper complexity than standard pale malt. Non-chill filtration preserves the natural oils, proteins, and esters that cold filtration strips — the robust mouthfeel and profile depth trace directly to this decision. Charcoal filtering through sugar maple follows traditional Tennessee whiskey practice.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Milk chocolate, roasted coffee, ripe plum, dark cherry, and honey
• Palate: Caramel, red berries, and baking spice — the complexity evolving as the whiskey rests in the glass
• Finish: Full-bodied and sustained — the pot still character and non-chill filtration contributing texture through a warm, rich close
