A Limited Release Series
From AJ’s Hand Made Still
Reserved for This Moment
Two hundred and fifty years in, America still has something to say. So does AJ.
The Brave is a single barrel, cask strength spirits series distilled on the square pot still AJ built by hand — an even split of corn and cane, aged for years in Kelvin Cooperage oak, right here in Hopkinsville, Kentucky.
Each label in the series carries an iconic American moment in our history.
United
The Brave
Red Label
50% Corn & 50% Cane
Finished in a Wheated Bourbon Cask
On the night of December 25th, 1776, Washington didn't wait for conditions to be right. He crossed. A single brave decision changed everything.
The Red Label carries that moment, bottled at cask strength, and finished in four grain wheat-forward bourbon barrels that add a subtle softness and honeyed sweetness. You'll know it when you taste it.

On October 28th, 1886, she was assembled in the open air of New York Harbor for the world to see — a brave declaration of the freedom our great nation had become.
The White Label is the only spirit in The Brave series that goes unfinished — no secondary barrel, no layered influence. What's in the bottle is exactly what the barrel gave it. Pure and unadorned, the way the moment deserves.

The Brave
Blue Label
50% Corn & 50% Cane
Finished in a High Rye Bourbon Cask
February 23rd, 1945. Six men on the summit of Mount Suribachi, under fire, raising a flag the whole Pacific could see. A brave act that told the world the tide had turned.
The Blue Label finishes in high-rye bourbon barrels — the most assertive finish in the series. Bold, direct, and uncompromising, the way the moment demands. Corn and cane from AJ's square pot still, aged onsite in Kelvin Cooperage oak, then laid into barrels that push back. This one doesn't ask anything of you. It tells you.

Made By Hand and Saved For This moment
"I built that still myself. I distilled this myself. And I've been holding these barrels, waiting for the right moment. Two hundred and fifty years felt like it."
