Founded in 2010 Dark Horse is a Kansas City distillery that is family-owned and operated by the Garcia siblings. Focusing on craft whiskies, Dark Horse buys its grain from local farmers, giving them much better control over their grain. Made from a mash of 80% corn and 20% rye, Dark Horse Reserve Bourbon is fermented over 5 to 7 days employing the classic sour mash method. This Bourbon is gently distilled in a 500-gallon copper hybrid still named Chester Copperpot, before being matured in new Missouri Oak barrels for about 18 - 20 months. Dark Horse whiskies are not charcoal-filtered and no artificial coloring or flavoring agents are used.

Dark Horse Distillery Reserve Bourbon Whiskey has a warming aroma of maple, cedar and roasted nuts. The bourbon is full-bodied, with notes of caramel, honey and smoke on the palate leading to a lasting finish with touches of buttered bread, creamy vanilla and nuts.
