Description

A thoughtful and expressive American bourbon that celebrates sustainable farming just as much as rich flavor. The Regenerative Grain Series from Brother’s Bond delivers creamy sweetness, gentle spice, and balanced oak influence — all at an approachable 95 proof — making it a compelling choice for sipping neat or crafting elevated cocktails. Origins & Craftsmanship Brother’s Bond is a unique collaboration among distillers who also steward the land: Jeff Arnett (Wilderness Trail), David Perkins (Freddie’s Distilling), and Alex and Ben Crowley (High Wire Distilling). What sets this bourbon apart is its emphasis on regenerative agriculture — sourcing grain grown using soil-health-focused, sustainable practices that enhance biodiversity, water retention, and carbon capture. The Regenerative Grain Series is distilled as a classic Kentucky bourbon from a mash bill rooted in corn, rye, and malted barley, with the grain grown and harvested under regenerative principles. After fermentation, distillation takes place in traditional column and pot still set-ups appropriate to each partner distillery’s style, followed by aging in new charred American oak barrels. The result is a bourbon that expresses both terroir and technique — rich, grounded, and more ecologically mindful at its core. Bottled at 95 proof (≈47.5% ABV), this expression maintains the spirit’s integrity without over-emphasis on proof, offering a smooth balance of grain sweetness, spice, and oak through and through. Critics Commentary & Scores Professional reviewers and spirits commentators have taken note of this innovative bourbon’s balance of flavor, sustainability ethos, and overall drinkability: Critics highlight its approachable yet nuanced palate, noting that the regenerative grain influence gives an added sense of textural complexity and purity of grain expression compared to many mainstream bourbons. Reviewers appreciate the crisp sweetness and integrated spice — especially at a modest 95 proof — which allows subtler notes to come forward that can be overshadowed in higher-proof bottlings. Although broad point scores vary across outlets, this series frequently earns strong scores in the low-to-mid 90s (≈91–94 points) from reviewers who value both craftsmanship and sustainability innovation. Across commentary, the consensus celebrates how this expression honors traditional bourbon character while inviting drinkers to engage with thoughtful environmental stewardship — a modern approach that resonates with contemporary craft spirits audiences. Tasting Profile Nose:Bright and creamy, with vanilla bean, sweet corn, and white peach leading the way. Underneath are subtle hints of cinnamon spice, baking bread, and toasted oak, giving an inviting aromatic presence without heaviness. Palate:Soft and well-balanced, with rich caramel, honeyed grain, and ripe orchard fruit at the forefront. Gentle rye spice provides a counterpoint to the sweetness, while mild oak adds structure and depth without dominating.
