Production: FEW Bourbon is crafted using a meticulously selected blend of corn, rye, and malted barley. The grains are milled, mashed, and fermented on-site before being distilled in small batches using traditional copper pot stills. The bourbon is aged in new, charred American oak barrels, which impart deep flavors and a beautiful amber color to the spirit. The finishing in port wine barrels adds a unique complexity to the bourbon.

Distillery Background: FEW Spirits was founded by Paul Hletko in 2011, in a city that had a long history of temperance. The name "FEW" is a nod to Frances Elizabeth Willard, a key figure in the temperance movement, whose influence kept Evanston dry for many years. Today, FEW Spirits is known for its innovative approach to distilling, producing a range of award-winning spirits with a rebellious spirit and a nod to tradition.

Serving Suggestions: FEW Bourbon can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks to savor its rich and complex flavors. It also shines in classic bourbon cocktails such as the Old Fashioned, Manhattan, and Mint Julep. For an adventurous twist, try it in a bourbon-based sour or a modern cocktail creation.
