Rabbit Hole Amburana Founder s Collection Bourbon Whiskey Hot on Sale

Our Founder, Kaveh Zamanian, has always been drawn to Brazil s culture. With its passionate fans, exotic foods, infectious music, and colorful carnivals, it is a region pulsing with energy. It is also home to the majestic Amazon rainforest where the timber towers and the Amburana tree soars. Finishing this Founder s Collection offering with this unique hardwood, which is most often used to age the rum-like spirit Cachaca, makes this one-of-a-kind bourbon truly remarkable.

For this limited release, we took an exceptional 12 Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon and -finished it in new Amburana Brazilian Oak barrels. These barrels have a heavy toast and #4 char. Toasting the barrel is a slow process that coaxes the sugars from it s fibers and opens the wood. The fitting alligator char caramelizes these sugars and causes the wood to peel, allowing the spirit to draw out nuanced flavors from the barrel.
