Lonely Oak Distillery was born out of a dream and a promise. A dream to make small-batch craft spirits using grains grown right here, in western Iowa, on the Hoffmann family farm. It's on this generous land that we planted the seeds, harvested the grains, and perfected the recipes for the Heartland's finest spirits. That's our dream.
AUTHENTICITY...IT DEFINES STEEPLE RIDGE BOURBON. CRAFT DISTILLED IN SMALL BATCHES, OUR AWARD WINNING BOURBON IS MADE FROM HEIRLOOM GRAINS GROWN ON OUR FAMILY FARM. YOU WILL EXPERIENCE A FULL BODIED MOUTHFEEL WITH FLAVORS AND AROMATICS OF VANILLA, CHERRY, DARK CHOCOLATE, AND FINALLY, OAK. A COMPLEX AUTHENTIC CRAFT BOURBON YOU WILL SAVOR OVER AND OVER AGAIN. ENJOY!
Tasting Notes
You will find distinctive flavors of dark chocolate, grain, and sweet tree fruits early, which are complimented by oak, spice, and a rich, full mouthfeel.
As you return to the glass you will find notes of dark caramel and chocolate covered cherries with aromatics of oak, vanilla bean, and hints of bread and tobacco. Overall, a distinctively pleasant, yet bold bourbon at 102 proof, for you to enjoy with the closest of friends and family. Each bottle is hand signed with its own barrel and bottle number; there are no two alike.
