Distillation and production
Distillation and production
Production method
The range is based on a combination of distillates sourced from partner distilleries and stocks produced in-house at the Six Mile Creek site; the Lead Blender and Master Distiller focus on blending different mash bills and using finishes in various casks to achieve the characteristics of each expression.
Distillation
Mixed production: use of pot stills (Vendome) at the Six Mile Creek site and distillates supplied by partners; focus on traditional pot distillation followed by blending and finishing.
Ageing
Aging in oak barrels (including use of new American oak barrels for bourbon) and in some cases secondary finishing in European/French casks; some expressions feature final maturation in special barrels or staves.
Producer history Heaven's Door
Heaven's Door originated as a spirits project developed with the direct involvement of Bob Dylan and in partnership with Spirits Investment Partnership and industry figures (including Marc Bushala). The range was publicly introduced from 2018 onwards and the brand developed a production and visitor site at Six Mile Creek, Pleasureville (Kentucky). Over the years the line expanded its expressions, including limited series and special collections featuring labels reproducing Dylan's artwork.
Production philosophy
Uniting art and craftsmanship: the bottles and design reflect Bob Dylan's artworks and ironworks, while production seeks a balance between American bourbon tradition and experimental blending and finishing to present each label as its own story.
Territory
USA — production and distillery center in Pleasureville (Kentucky); operational/legal headquarters and commercial activities in Chicago, Illinois.
Awards and recognitions
The brand and some expressions have received recognition at international competitions (including mentions and awards at the London Spirits Competition and the San Francisco World Spirits Competition according to product information).
