The truth about whiskey isn’t just in its proof or its finish – it’s in the moments it helps create. I’ve watched this truth unfold across three generations of my family’s dedication to the craft of whiskey making. But more importantly, I’ve seen it in the millions of moments where our spirits have been part of someone else’s story.
While the spirits themselves have stories, they serve as a backdrop to unlock the real moments in life that matter. Whiskey is bipartisan. It’s non-denominational. When we open a bottle together, even if it is just for a moment, the things we have in common eclipse our differences.
I have traveled the world and spent countless hours with whiskey lovers. I’ve shared stories, and I’ve heard amazing stories. From the bustling bars of Tokyo to the quiet porches of Kentucky, I’ve witnessed how a single pour can bridge cultures, generations, and backgrounds. One universal truth has emerged: times spent together sharing stories while sharing spirits are not simply stories, they are the TRUE STORIES that shape our life experiences.
True Story whiskeys will be present for these life experiences. You’ll find us at milestone celebrations – births, promotions, weddings. We’ll be there in quiet moments of reflection and remembrance. We’ll be part of the everyday victories and the once-in-a-lifetime achievements. From breaking bread in restaurants to raising a glass in tribute to those we’ve lost, our whiskey is more than just a spirit – it’s a witness to life’s most meaningful chapters.
The Henderson family’s commitment to whiskey making spans generations, but our real legacy isn’t measured in years or bottles – it’s measured in moments. Every time someone pulls up a chair at a table where our whiskey is shared, they become part of our story, and we become part of theirs.
That’s why we don’t just make whiskey – we craft opportunities for connection. Every finishing technique, every careful blend, every choice we make is in service of creating spirits worthy of your most meaningful moments. Whether you’re a whiskey expert or just beginning your journey, there’s a chair waiting for you at our table.
