  • Friday Night Bourbon: Jefferson’s Ocean & What Movement Changes

    Friday Night Bourbon returns with a pour of Jefferson’s Ocean Aged at Sea, and a look at what happens when conditions aren’t controlled.

    Most bourbon ages in one place. This one didn’t. It moved through oceans, changing environments, and constant motion and that changes the outcome.

    Caramel and oak are there, but so is something else. A little edge. A little salt air. A reminder that time isn’t the only factor that matters.

    Where something sits. What it moves through. What it’s exposed to.

    That matters too.

    Pour something good.
