Product Description
Bower Hill Bourbon commemorates the "Battle of Bower Hill" which was the first bloodshed of the Whisky Rebellion in 1794. The Mingo Creek militiamen numbering nearly six hundred surrounded federal tax inspector General John Neville's fortified home, Bower Hill. The battle took the lives of two rebel leaders, Oliver Miller and Major James McFarlane, a veteran of the Revolutionary War, as well as a few U.S. soldiers defending the Bower Hill home. Upon completion of the two day battle, the home was razed by fire. The Rebellion originated from the Excise Whiskey Tax of 1791. The farmers who resisted, many of them war veterans, contended that they were fighting for the principles of the American Revolution. This well aged bourbon is hand selected and proudly bottled by: Bower Hill Distillery, Silverton, Ohio.

What critics and judges wrote
Whisky Advocate · David Fleming · 2021
Mint, dark fruit, and figs on the nose, with a youthful profile, punctuated by notes of fresh oak. … The finish is balanced and creamy, without great length. A solidly well-made and balanced whiskey that needs more maturity and integration
