CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Nov. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ragged Branch Distillery, a farm-to-glass whiskey distillery in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, announces its Straight Bourbon – Honey Barrel Finished took one of the top awards at the Virginia Bourbon Invitational this year.

"Our program always includes having something special in the Tasting Room and the honey is one of the most popular things we've done," says Ragged Branch co-founder and bourbon maker, Alex Toomy. "The honey bourbon is extremely unique, especially since we bottle it at barrel proof, but it's very labor-intensive and that makes it hard for our guys to scale. There's nothing out there like it, though, and the hard work we put into it shows up in how it drinks."
