FIRE & FLASK DISTILLERY MAKERS OF PURPLE CORN BOURBON
Meet Our Staple: Didymium Bourbon
The purple corn we use in our mash bill gives our bourbon a much sweeter profile than most others. Purple corn gives a flavor profile of fruit and a bit of almond. We throw in some rye to add a bit of spice, and some malt to round out the flavor. Using a higher percentage of corn also brings those sweet notes to the surface making this the perfect end-of-day sipper! Our purple corn bourbon tastes amazing and different from any other bourbon you've tried.
Why Call It Didymium?
Didymium is a violet-colored glass that has the property of being able to filter out the frequency of light given off by glass as it is heated in an oxidizing atmosphere. Glassblowers use didymium glasses to filter out this light and protect their eyes. Our Didymium bourbon helps filter out the rest of the shelf so you get the best in flavor and quality.
The Batches
Bourbon's flavor is limitless. We have used our first few batches to explore that flavor and find the perfect staple to show the uniqueness of our purple corn. Make sure to stay tuned and try them all!
