Distiller's Note
A traditional Bourbon aged 5 years and then finished in Cherry Bounce casks, give this bottle an unmistakable spark that will have your calling for more. Unfortunately, once these bottles are gone, there will be no encore. So get yours before they are gone.

WBSE Notes
Chad and Bill were both astonished by the complexity and the uniqueness of this bourbon! Three Chord never fails to achieve greatness in its expressions! This expression, is no exception to that rule. Cherry bounce is a liquor in its own right, with the recipe going back to Martha Washington. Today’s method is a little different. The fresh cherries are soaked in distillate, until they bounce off the bottom of the vessel, macerated to extract the juice, strained and dumped in a barrel to age and then bottled. The used Cherry Bounce barrel was then reused to age this fine bourbon, imparting the wonderful cherry notes achieved in the finish. We feel that this is an excellent bourbon for the holidays, or any occasion. Enjoy!
