second release was born out of utilizing barrels from our collection that speak to the roots of our founders. Rare barrels from Georgia and Tennessee were blended with our Kentucky High Rye base to yield a 65% Rye/35% Bourbon that is truly one of a kind.
This blend was achieved through multiple sessions, all considering the unique mash bills, ages and flavor characteristics of the three different whiskeys. As with Blend No. 1, a portion of the proceeds from Blend No. 2 are donated to The Appalachian Impact Fund, a cause near and dear to our hearts.

About AoA
None of this is about ego, celebrity, or glamour. We are friends who had a unique opportunity to crack into an extremely difficult business, and we said yes. We believe in saying yes more often. Time with friends, exploring new adventures, scratching the itch of curiosity, and taking some risks. We all have regrets, but this isn’t one of them, and our objective in living full lives is to have fewer as we age.
We aren’t going to tell you what to taste, because everyone is different. We believe in the idea of creative expression, but we are also fanatical about quality and flavor. All of our releases were made with awe, joy, humility, and purpose…things that we hold dear, and we hope you feel the same way when you are drinking our bottles.
Connection, collaboration, and community are at the center of what we dig…and we look for it in everything we do. We love our families and friends, and can’t wait to make more. May this be a vehicle that brings people together, as we are lucky to have a platform such as Art of Alchemy from which to share.
Nose: Lavender, smoke, roasted nuts, woodiness, and herbal notes
Palate: Spice up front, with a lingering rich sweetness, nuttiness, toasted coconut, and almond
Finish: Sweet heat that lingers and leaves a dark chocolate drying effect
