The farmers and militiamen taking part in this Whiskey Rebellion were fighting for the very same principles which fueled the American Revolution, and during the attack on Nevilles home Bower Hill two rebel leaders were killed, including Revolutionary War Major James McFarlane. Upon completion of the two-day battle, Nevilles home was razed by fire, and now, Bower Hill and the Whiskey Rebellion are commemorated with a new rebellious spirit, Bower Hill Single Barrel Bourbon.Distilled and aged in Louisville, Kentucky, Bower Hill Barrel Reserve Bourbon has a warm amber appearance and an aroma of vanilla spice and rich, charred oak.
