The Whiskey Reviewer A World of Whiskey, Poured Every Weekday
Hard Truth Distilling Co., a craft distillery located in Southern Indiana, has unveiled their newest addition to the distillery’s line-up of spirits and first-ever bourbon whiskey product: Hard Truth Sipes’ Straight Bourbon Whiskey. The product name is a tribute to Brown County’s rich history and the area’s first known distiller, Henry A. Sipes.
The four-year-old bourbon is finished in hand-selected rum casks and aged in the Hard Truth Distilling Co. rackhouse at Hard Truth Hills in Nashville, Indiana. The 750 ml bottle is bottled at 90 proof with a 45% ABV. The high-quality bourbon is available for a very limited time at all seven Big Woods locations and Hard Truth Hills for $57.99 for one bottle of $99.00 for two. The product will begin to rollout at local retailers in the coming weeks.
“After years of hard work, we’re finally ready to launch our leading straight bourbon whiskey,” said from Bryan Smith, Head Distiller and General Manager at Hard Truth Distilling Co. “Sipes’ is a beverage to truly be savored, and we look forward to expanding our customer base as we dive into the world of dark spirits.”
Later this year, Hard Truth Distilling Co. plans to launch three additional whiskeys, including their Hard Truth Distilling Co. Straight Rye Whiskey. The new whiskey is unique as is it the only Indiana-made whiskey to use the sweet mash fermentation technique. The first limited release is scheduled for this November and will be available exclusively at Big Woods restaurant and Hard Truth Hills.
