Thomas Jefferson, our third president, was a wine aficionado. He was America’s first ambassador to France and, while there, fell in love with the finest wines of Bordeaux. Once of his favorites was the Chateau Pichon Baron, an exceptional red wine.

Based on Jefferson Master Distiller Trey Zoeller's experience finishing Jefferson’s in creative ways and in various types of casks, he felt strongly that the Pichon Baron wine and the toasted staves of the French oak wine casks would complement his well age, complex Kentucky Straight Bourbon whiskey.

He hand selected a limited number of Pichon Baron barrels, refilling them with Jefferson’s Reserve bourbon and extra aging them in their proprietary “hot box” environment.

Trey has created a one-of-a-kind whiskey that combines the robust flavors of the Bordeaux, the wood notes of both American and French oak and the grain of a premium bourbon in a delicious, complex and balanced final product.

Aroma: Robust and Fruity.

Taste: Grape notes combined with oak spices, intense flavor with his of fresh brewed coffee and chocolate

Finish: Fruit, spice and wine that lingers on the palate
