A Colorado based distillery, Axe and the Oak Bourbon is a blend of in-house distilled bourbon and Indiana sourced bourbon, resulting in a final mashbill of approximately 21% rye. While the company website states the in-house distilled bourbon is aged at least 2 years, the bottle label states less than 2 years which may be outdated at this point. The resulting bourbon is sweet, easy drinking, and pleasant, making for a bourbon that will appeal to those looking for something that errs on the sweeter side of things.
