Our passion for bourbon grew out of our love of horseracing.
In 2005, we established Stonestreet Farms in Kentucky intending to make our mark in top-level thoroughbred racing. That dream became a reality when we won three consecutive American Horses of the Year: Curlin (2007, 2008) and Rachel Alexandra (2009).
As with horses, mastering bourbon challenges the limits of willpower and perseverance.
Fortunately, we know the importance of grit. Passed down through six generations, the Stonestreet name—which graces our horse farm, our family estate vineyard, and now our first bourbon—embodies a drive for excellence, along with the humility to understand that victory is never a given.
Today, with the Founder’s Edition, we honor the entrepreneurial spirit that shaped America’s whiskey legend, as well as the unbridled competition that keeps that spirit alive today. In time, we aim to build our own distillery, craft distinct mash bills, and share our artisanal creations.
And always, we will chase perfection knowing the pursuit is infinite. That is precisely why we believe the future of Stonestreet Bourbon knows no bounds.
