formula. Aged
in new American
oak barrels and matured
in French Oak ex-cognac
barrels, the result is a
balanced, soft, unique flavor

as the product.

a Paloma with
rye whisky?
Grapefruit juice

drinkers
on Cinco de Mayo. Copper

blend of thoroughbred
grains from the Northern
Neck of Virginia. It is double
pot-distilled at a low 150 to
160 proof to enhance the
fruitiness, and matured in
ex-bourbon barrels with
infusions of toasted apple
wood and oak chips.
