Wanting to learn from the best, the partners consulted with bourbon artisan Dave Pickerell, who taught them the time-honored, old-school methods of producing straight bourbon. From the beginning, Ragged Branch has been committed to crafting the finest, authentic Virginia Straight Bourbon with no short-cuts.
