Silver Cross Four Grain Whiskey is just that; a whiskey comprised of four types of grain in equal parts. This whiskey is a perfect example of artisanal distillation at its best as you can taste each grains presence in the whiskey itself. The Silver Cross name comes from a medal that was given out in the early days of the British Open, this medal would later come to symbolize friendship, tradition, camaraderie and spirited competition. In that same spirit, Journeyman has created a tradition we call “Four Grains Fore Golf” and we donate 1% of all sales from this whiskey back to various golf charities/organizations to teach kids the game of golf and instill in them good core values.

Tasting Panel
A Gold Medal winner of our San Francisco World Spirits Competition, Silver Cross offers a sensual nosing of honeyed apples and peach, with a touch of mocha. The grains are outgoing on the palate: toasted barley and wheat akin to the flavors of French toast, with baking spices and a white pepper finish.
Although Bourbon may be produced anywhere in the United States, it is most commonly associated with Bourbon County, Kentucky, where it has been produced since the late 18th century. Made from a mash bill containing at least 51% corn, the Bourbon Whiskey distillate must be aged in new, charred white oak barrels. Bourbon Whiskeys are bottled at eighty proof (40% abv) or higher and cannot contain any added color or flavor. A versatile spirit that can be sipped neat, with water or on the rocks, it also performs nicely added to cocktails like the Old Fashioned.
