Heaven’s Door Ascension Straight Bourbon

Heaven’s Door Ascension is a Tennessee straight bourbon built on a unique mash bill with 30% small grains — aged more than six and a half years in American oak for a smooth, lasting profile of vanilla and baked bread layered over toasted oak.

Part of the Heaven’s Door collection of American whiskeys created in partnership with Bob Dylan, Ascension uses an unusually high proportion of small grains — 30% — to complement the character drawn from more than six and a half years in American oak barrels. The result is a bourbon that is smooth and lasting, with vanilla and baked bread riding over a base of toasted oak.

It is well suited to sipping neat or over a single large cube, and holds up in a classic bourbon cocktail.
