Yellowstone Bourbon introduces new permanent addition to family of award-winning expressions with Small Batch 107
Six-year-aged bourbon features bold proof to deliver intense yet balanced flavor
ST. LOUIS, March 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lebanon, Kentucky-based Yellowstone Bourbon announced the release of Small Batch 107, a new permanent addition to the Yellowstone family. The elevated expression pays homage to the brand's history while featuring several firsts for the family lineup. Small Batch is aged six years and the only variety in the Yellowstone portfolio to feature an age statement on packaging.
Bottled at 107 proof, the expression is one of the highest proof everyday offerings from Yellowstone. Due to the high proof, Small Batch is non-chill filtered, which allows the depth of flavors to stand out in this bold new bourbon. Yellowstone Small Batch 107 is available nationwide starting this month at a minimum suggested retail price of $44.99 per 750mL bottle.
Yellowstone Bourbon is one of the few bourbon brands available with a strong history of tradition and 150 years of continuous sales. To honor Yellowstone's heritage and values, seventh-generation Founder and Master Distiller Stephen Beam crafted Small Batch 107 with expert care. As one of the most experienced experts in the industry, Beam made deliberate choices from the six-year age statement to the 107 proof point and more to create a new release that achieves the ideal balance of flavor and depth.
"Yellowstone was the top selling whiskey in Kentucky in the 1960s, and at the time, it was bottled at six years old," said Beam. "I wanted to bring back that tradition and offer a product with a clear age statement, and the perfect entry level proof point at 107. This is a long time coming. We've had great success with special finishes but never had an age-stated product before Small Batch."
Together, Small Batch's six-year age statement, 107 proof point and non-chill-filtering process result in a bold flavor experience that's great neat or over ice, and stands up well in a cocktail. With notes of caramel and vanilla with hints of chocolate and oak on the nose, Small Batch features intensified flavors of caramel, oak, honey and Yellowstone's signature rich cherry notes.
"The higher proof brings out more flavors, and by non-chill filtering Small Batch we created a much more full-bodied product than a lower-proof chill filtered bourbon," said Beam. "It's the perfect addition to our family of offerings. Small Batch delivers on our heritage and tradition, bringing back memories of Yellowstone's history, while also representing a natural progression in elevating the portfolio."
As the newest member in the growing family of now seven highly acclaimed Yellowstone Bourbon expressions, Yellowstone Small Batch 107 joins the brand's flagship 93 proof Yellowstone Select, which won Double Gold at the 2024 SIP Awards and Gold at the 2024 ASCOT Awards. Yellowstone's Special Finishes Collection: Rum Cask won Platinum at the 2024 ASCOT Awards and Yellowstone Special Finishes: Toasted was awarded Double Gold at the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition and Gold at the SIP and ASCOT Awards. Additional award-winning Yellowstone expressions include Limited Edition, Hand Picked Single Barrel and American Single Malt, which won Double Gold at the 2024 SIP Awards and Gold at the 2024 ASCOT Awards.
Founded by pioneer distiller Joseph Bernard Dant, Yellowstone Bourbon was named after the United States' first national park in 1872. In 2011, seventh-generation Master Distiller Stephen Beam – a descendant of both the historic Dant and Beam distilling families – founded Lebanon, Kentucky-based Limestone Branch Distillery and resurrected the Yellowstone brand with the creation of Yellowstone Select Bourbon. Since 2018, Yellowstone Bourbon has partnered with the National Parks Conservation Association and is one of NPCA's largest annual corporate sponsors, having donated $1 million to preserve national parks.
