Department Overview:

It all began with growing superior corn, wheat & rye on Henry Farms. When we decided to produce bourbon, we specifically selected an heirloom red corn developed at the University of Wisconsin in 1939. We chose these grains because Joe’s dad, Jerry, grew them for 30 years (in the 1940’s - 1960’s). We had to repropagate these heirloom grains and are the only people in the world using them in our mashbill, making J. Henry & Sons Bourbon unique.

Our bourbon is a natural extension of what we already do, and it’s our privilege to offer bourbon whiskey made with our exacting production standards from these high-quality ingredients grown right here on our farm.
