Whiskey Tree Bourbon
Deep in the Pearl River swamp, there is a tree. Legend has it, back in the days of Prohibition, the moonshiners would gather there—a forbidden place of creativity, mischief, and culture. The story is the inspiration behind New Orleans’s Seven Three Distilling’s Whiskey Tree High Rye Bourbon, which this spring earned the Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, as well as a vote for best in class finalist in the special barrel finished bourbon category. “These results prove that Louisiana’s heat, humidity, and storytelling spirit can produce world-class whiskey, said Seven Three founder Jeff Rogers. seventhreedistilling.com.
