Tennessee High Malt is the rich, malt-forward approach to bourbon. Made from the finest malted grains, each step of our process has been crafted to highlight the complexity of these ingredients. The signature Tennessee High Malt recipe – known to our distillers as “Barrel 91” – was selected from the first 100 barrels produced at the Experimental Distillery.

Made from 4 grains, including 3 select specialty malts, Tennessee High Malt starts with an attemperated 7-day fermentation. This extended process highlights both the rich, high-malt character while also adding a nuanced, fruity complexity to the spirit. After fermentation, each batch is distilled in our custom 30ft. column still before being laid to age in two types of charred & toasted oak barrels. This combination of cooperage imparts a balanced, confection-rich character to the aged whiskey, while also harmonizing with its malty-rich character.

After aging more than 2 years, Chattanooga Whiskey 91 utilizing one version of the classic solera process, they bring together 100 fully aged barrels of Chattanooga Whiskey 91 into one large, charred white oak Solera finishing barrel which rarely goes empty. After each small batch bottling, they then top the solera with 8-12 mature barrels. This continued process allows the younger and older whiskey to marry together, imparting a gradual complexity over time.
