Jefferson’s Groth Reserve

Founded in 1997, Jefferson’s is the brainchild of Trey Zoeller and his father Chet, a famed bourbon historian. They were continuing a family tradition that goes back to Trey’s 8th generation grandmother who was arrested in 1799 for the “production and sales of spirituous liquors.”

The brand is named after Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States (1801 – 1809.)

Known for his curiosity and experimental spirit.  This is a mindset to which Trey has dedicated himself, pushing the boundaries of the definition of bourbon. Upholding tradition, yet always discovering new possibilities.

Our experts say:

The fully matured Kentucky straight bourbon is extra matured in old French oak casks which previously held Cabernet Sauvignon from Groth Winery, one of the most outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon producer from Napa Valley, California.

Over the ensuing months, the bourbon took on unique characteristics from the Groth barrel which married together in a supremely balanced spirit  The Groth Cask Finish explodes with luscious dark berry flavors, such as black cherry and blackberry, evident from the red hue that the bourbon has adopted.
