Green River Full Proof Bourbon Whiskey

Green River Full Proof is Owensboro's revived 1885 distillery at 117.3 proof — a blend of five-to-seven-year barrels that Breaking Bourbon rated 4 out of 5 and called a significant achievement at fifty dollars. Green River is DSP-KY-10, the tenth license in Kentucky, built by J.W. McCulloch in 1885 on the Ohio River, rebuilt in 2014, first new barrels in 2016 under master distiller Jacob Call, and bought by Bardstown Bourbon Company in 2022. Full Proof is the house 70% corn, 21% rye, 9% malted barley mashbill, aged five to seven years in new charred oak, and bottled at the proof it entered the barrel — 117.3 — uncut. Breaking Bourbon: vanilla, caramel, and oak with leather, cinnamon, and bourbon-soaked cherry on the nose; caramel cream candy and brown sugar with dark fruit, honey, and barrel char on a creamy palate; and a finish where oak, rye spice, and heat build — the smooth, approachable Green River signature translated to barrel strength without losing drinkability. Bourbon Culture and Amongst the Whiskey both single out the texture. Honest note: the best Green River, and one of the few sub-$60 barrel-proof Kentucky bourbons with five-year-plus stock behind it — the bottle to put beside Stagg Jr. and Larceny Barrel Proof at half the hunt. Neat with a drop of water. Green River, at full proof.
