Each edition of the Abraham line is a different expression and a new expression is released a few times a year.
The Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Double Barrel Bourbon is not chill filtered and is 100 proof.
SRP $69.99.
A. Smith Bowman's distilling roots date back to the years before Prohibition when the Bowman family had a granary and dairy farm in Sunset Hills, Virginia. They used excess grain from the family estate to distill spirits. Considered a micro-distillery by today's standards, A. Smith Bowman produces an assortment of spirits. For more information on A.
