Balanced flavours

Based on a classic recipe that goes way back to the good old days of exploration, settlement and invention, Bandwagon hits all the right spols for what a good bourbon should taste like.

It's smooth, full-bodied, with just the right balance between malt sweetness and light spiciness brought in by a generous amount of rye in the grain bill.

The result is a fine-tasting handcrafted small-batch whiskey you can enjoy in any form and quantity.

Ready for serving

While crafting and then tasting the Bandwagon high-rye bourbon we couldn't stop thinking that it's balanced flavor profile would work wonders in a classic whiskev-based cocktail, such as Old-Fashioned or Manhattan.

The next logical thought was "why not making the cocktails ready for serving ourselves?".

And thus the Bandwagon cocktail range was born.

Brand story

Bandwagons used to take musicians between small frontier towns all across the USA back during the Settlement era.

And where you’ve found loud music, you certainly found booze. Unsurprisingly, these wagons used to haul quite a lot of distilled spirits with them, either in the form of private stashes, or straight up for sale, depending on the legal framework in the town they’ve been staying at the moment.

So when one saw a bandwagon coming into the settlement, it was clear that there would be some entertainment, in one way or the other. Like the bandwagons of the past that used to bring fun to frontier towns all across the US, the Bandwagon high-rye bourbon is entertainment distilled and bottled. And the best thing about it is that it doesn’t have any rules to it.

Whether you like drinking your whiskey neat, on the rocks, straight up, or as part of a cocktail, you’ll discover that Bandwagon fits just right into any of those.

Because that’s what good whiskey is all about – great flavor that finds its place wherever it goes.
