Unabridged Volume 1 was released in 2022 to rave reviews and was recognized as a Double Platinum winner in the prestigious Ascot Awards.  This literary-themed blend of straight bourbon whiskies was created by calling on the expertise of three award-winning authors and whiskey experts including our CEO, Heather Greene, along with Noah Rothbaum and David Wondrich, authors of the Oxford Companion to Spirits and Cocktails and Flaviar’s resident liquor experts. The three tasted numerous whiskey samples and ultimately created a blend of straight bourbons, which were made in three different states and are of different ages. Unabridged Volume 1 showcases the flavors a barrel can impart into bourbon over time and place.

It was created with a backbone of straight bourbon whiskies distilled by master distiller Marlene Holmes onsite in Texas and at Bardstown Bourbon Co. both using the same mash bill. Bourbon distilled in Tennessee and Kentucky bourbon round out the chapters. It was hand-bottled at 59% ABV / 118 Proof.

Thirty-eight barrels were used to create Unabridged Volume 1.

Unabridged Volume 2 was released in 2023 to even better reviews and again recognized as a Double Platinum winner in the Ascot Awards, as well as being listed in the Top 25 Whiskeys of 2023 by acclaimed whiskey expert Fred Minnick. To create Unabridged Volume 2, Milam & Greene harvested bourbon that they distilled in the small copper pot still in Texas and in larger column stills in Kentucky, both using malted rye in the proprietary mash bill. Tennessee barrels of different ages add structure and tannins to round out this exciting blend. This cask-strength blend incorporates some of the rarest casks from the distillery’s library.

A beautiful bourbon with fragrant aromas of dark cherry, fig, sweet almond, menthol, fine boot leather, anise, and caramel candy. Full-bodied with a viscous mouthfeel carrying bold flavors of dark cherry cola notes characteristic of well-aged bourbon followed by dark brown sugar, sweet black tea, marzipan, and oak.  It packs a punch at 58.8% ABV / 117.6 Proof.

Fifty-six barrels were used to create Unabridged Volume 2.
