Old Dominick Bonded Straight 6 Year Tennessee Whiskey

Old Dominick Bonded Straight Tennessee Whiskey is a 6-year-old Bottled-In-Bond whiskey distilled and bottled by Old Dominick in Memphis, Tennessee, at 50% ABV (100 proof). Built on a mash bill of 75% corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley, this Tennessee whiskey delivers layered caramel sweetness, vanilla, and warm baking spice, making it a standout choice for whiskey drinkers who appreciate tradition done right.

Old Dominick is one of Memphis's original distilling families, tracing its roots back to 1866 before returning to downtown Memphis with a modern distillery on South Front Street. This bonded expression follows the traditional Lincoln County Process, filtering the spirit through sugar maple charcoal before resting in new charred oak barrels — the same time-honored method that defines authentic Tennessee whiskey. The first barrels for this release were laid down in Fall 2017, giving the whiskey the full six years required to develop real depth and character.
