Distilled in Tennessee and aged at least partly in Kentucky, this 13-year-old bourbon was blended by Marianne Eaves, the former master distiller at Castle & Key. Eaves blended five batches, each at barrel proof, ranging from 50% to 52% ABV. This batch is bottled at 100.6 proof.
The whiskey is named for the Sweetens Cove golf course near Chattanooga, Tennessee, which has a cult following despite its lack of amenities. The course, and the bourbon, are backed by a group that includes NFL star Peyton Manning, tennis champion Andy Roddick, and a host of other investors from the world of sports, real estate development, music, and beyond.
