Gambit No. 6 is a six-year Kentucky straight bourbon crafted by Master Distiller Chip Tate, finished across six different casks for an intricate, layered profile.
Aged six years in Kentucky, Gambit No. 6 undergoes an unusually elaborate finishing regime under Master Distiller Chip Tate. Originally envisioned as a double wine-barrel finished bourbon, the concept expanded to six distinctive cask finishes — Sonoma Chardonnay, Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon, Apple Brandy, Oloroso Sherry, Muscatel, and Tokaji — each contributing its own character. The result is a rich yet balanced bourbon where wine sweetness, orchard-fruit brightness, and fortified-wine complexity converge with traditional Kentucky bourbon warmth and structure.
