High Wire Distilling Co. - Jimmy Red Classic Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Their flagship spirit, this bourbon is made from 100% Jimmy Red corn, a magenta-hued landrace grain grown for decades on James Island and nearly lost forever. For 9 years, they have worked with a team of researchers and farmers to rebuild a secure seed supply for the most flavorful whiskey corn we’ve ever tasted. 

Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a celebration of the diverse agricultural traditions of South Carolina. A true revival spirit, this whiskey began as a labor of love to save Jimmy Red Corn from near extinction. Little did we know we were preserving some of the finest whiskey corn in the country. Smooth & silky with a rich mouthfeel, this single grain (100% Jimmy Red Corn) straight bourbon is our pride and joy.
