The Wathen-Medley family has been distilling some of Kentucky’s finest bourbon for 8 generations, beginning more than 100 years before Prohibition. Today, the company is run by the 7th and 8th generation, Sam Madley and his father, master distiller Charles Medley. It is one of the last independent and family-owned Kentucky bourbons, as well as one of the most historic. A low-rye mash bill is used to create their Kentucky Straight Bourbon, and the recipe remains unaltered from the original.

Tasting Notes
Named for R. Wathen Medley, widely credited as the originator of the “Single Barrel Bourbon” concept, this limited-edition release from Charles Medley & Family pays tribute in the best Kentucky tradition—with a batch of full-proof bourbon whiskey.
Chosen blind by the family from barrels aged between 6 and 9 years, this Medley bottle is for serious bourbon enthusiasts. Proofs range from around 110 to around 120 per batch, but all the bourbons shine with the unique and deceptively smooth nature of Medley’s historic low-rye family mash bill.
