America First Bourbon 750ml

America First Bourbon is an Indiana-distilled straight bourbon bottled at 94 proof. Its producer identifies Ublendit in Scotts Valley, California, as the bottler, separating the whiskey’s distilling origin from its bottling location. Those are useful details for bourbon shoppers comparing provenance across brands, particularly when the company name on a bottle is different from the place where the whiskey was distilled.

Try a small pour neat before choosing water or ice. Compare equal amounts in two glasses, adding a few drops of water to one so you can find the strength you prefer. For cocktails, an Old Fashioned offers a straightforward starting point; adjust the sugar and bitters to your own taste.

How it’s made: The producer identifies American oak cask maturation and Indiana distillation for this straight bourbon. Bottling strength is 47% ABV, equivalent to 94 proof.
