They’re currently making two labels: Bending Branch 1840 and ChickenDuck.

Bending Branch 1840

The high-rye bourbon is 54% alcohol-by-volume and described as having aromas of vanilla, orangesicle and crème brûlée, with caramel and orange cordial on the palate. It’s $75 and available at Bending Branch, and will soon be in Texas retail stores. The four-grain bourbon features a unique mash bill created by Alison’s father, Dr. Bob Young, and is a small batch blend of three barrels.

The first ChickenDuck releases are a high-rye bourbon and a wheated bourbon. The former is billed as having aromas of brown sugar, baking spices and molasses, with sassafras and cracked pepper on the finish. The wheated bourbon is described with cedar chest and vanilla on the nose, followed by caramelized sugar and buttery toffee notes. Both ChickenDuck bourbons retail for $42 and are available at Bending Branch, and they’re coming to retail stores later this spring.

Bending Branch is already working on more products, and they hope to release a 14-year-old whiskey in the coming months. Nicknamed the Traveler, it spent seven years in Indiana and then seven more in Napa before finding its way to Kentucky.
