How It's Made

Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Caramel and vanilla lead, followed by hints of dried fruit and a touch of oak. Light spice notes of cinnamon and nutmeg emerge, alongside a subtle nuttiness.

Palate: Smooth entry with a medium body. Flavors of toasted grains, particularly corn and wheat, mingle with brown sugar and honey. Rye spiciness builds, accompanied by notes of baked apples and a whisper of dark chocolate.

Finish: Medium-long with lingering warmth. Oak tannins become more pronounced, balancing the residual sweetness. Fading notes of caramel and spice, with a slight peppery kick at the end.

Black Button Four Grain Straight Bourbon Whiskey is crafted using a unique blend of corn, wheat, rye, and malted barley, all locally sourced from New York State farms. The spirit is distilled in small batches using a custom-designed pot still, then aged for a minimum of three years in new, charred American oak barrels, allowing the flavors of all four grains to meld and develop into a complex, well-balanced bourbon.

Black Button Four Grain Straight Bourbon is made by New York's first grain-to-glass craft distillery since Prohibition, using 100% New York State-grown grains including a rare purple wheat variety that adds unique flavor notes.

The distillery's founder, Jason Barrett, is legally colorblind – hence the name "Black Button" as a playful nod to his inability to distinguish some colors, including the various shades of whiskey he creates.

Unlike most bourbons that use two or three grains, Black Button's four-grain mash bill includes corn, wheat, rye, and malted barley, resulting in a complexity that earned it a gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition within just three years of the distillery's founding.
