Bella Rio Bourbon is a craft bourbon born from a partnership between the founders of ROCK'N Vodka and Kennay Farms Distilling, described as the largest craft distillery in Illinois. It is bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV).
The bourbon is closely tied to Cheap Trick guitarist Rick Nielsen, who is part of the ROCK'N family of brands and signs Bella Rio bottles at events at the distillery. Barrels for Bella Rio have been chosen at barrel-picking events where guests score and select casks.
At 100 proof it is a full-flavoured bourbon, balancing classic caramel and vanilla sweetness with a bold finish.
With its rock-and-roll pedigree, it is a great gift for music fans and bourbon lovers alike.
Bourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak containers, and straight bourbon must be aged at least two years. Those rules give bourbon its characteristic sweetness, with caramel and vanilla drawn from the charred barrels.
