Boones Bourbon - Homegrown
Tyler Boone is a South Carolina singer and songwriter who has been gathering fans and playing gigs all across the South. But Tyler is also a multi-dimensional business entrepreneur who founded music festivals, created music for HBO, and much more. In 2015, while living in Nashville, the idea for Boone's Bourbon began to take form and Tyler started to learn about starting a brand upon his return to Charleston, South Carolina.
When Tyler wanted to craft a signature Bourbon, he teamed up with his father Michael Boone. Together they created a Homegrown Boone’s Bourbon with a mash bill of 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% barley. Launched in 2018, the Spirit is produced and managed out of Next Century Spirits in Zebulon, NC. It’s aged properly in new, charred, white oak and bottled at a powerful 58.5% ABV. They got it right and the prestigious awards started coming in almost instantly. Named Top 6 in the World in Forbes, Platinum Los Angeles, Double Gold San Francisco, Double Gold New York.
