McFarlane’s Reserve Select Cask Strength Bourbon

In the summer of 1794, Major Hames McFarlane and his band of whiskey rebels descended on Bower Hill, General Neville’s majestic West Pennsylvanian Estate, in protests of the tax. On the second day of the standoff, a white flag was waved from Neville’s mansions, and McFarlane, assuming the government had surrendered, stepped out in the open and was shot dead. McFarlane’s death further radicalized the resistance, inciting additional violent clashes with the Government, which ultimately quelled the Whiskey Rebellion in the fall of 1794. McFarlane’s brave stand, however, is a lasting tribute to American passion and our intimate and storied history with our native spirit.

McFarlane’s Reserve Select is a cask-strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon whiskey and the perfect toast to the rebellious spirit.
