Mary Dowling was the most successful and influential woman distiller in the male-dominated world of pre-Prohibition bourbon, yet no one knows her name. During Prohibition, she was the ONLY owner to shift production to Mexico to escape the long arm of the Dry Laws. The Mary Dowling brand restores her name to its rightful place in American hearts, minds, and glasses. This high rye Tequila Barrel-Finished bourbon is a testament to Mary Dowling's nature, expressing the flavors and aromas of the drink's remarkable journey. It's a story that begins with a high rye double malt Kentucky straight bourbon. After resting for a minimum of four years in newly toasted and charred Kelvin Cooperage American Oak casks, the beautiful amber liquid is transferred to Appalachian American Oak tequila barrels.
