Milam & Greene Whiskey announced the release of Unabridged Volume 3: A Cask-Strength Blend of Straight Bourbon Whiskeys. 

Unabridged Volume 3 is part of the distillery’s Blender’s Reserve Collection, a group of sought-after limited-edition bourbons created by the award-winning Milam & Greene Whiskey team. By indulging in this whiskey, bourbon fans can treat their palates to some of the rarest casks from the distillery’s warehouses. 

Following its pre-release debut where bottles sold out at the 2024 Kentucky Bourbon Festival, Milam & Greene Whiskey’s Unabridged Volume 3 is now available online and soon at select retailers across the U.S.  

The Unabridged Volumes Series highlights the notable talents of Master Blender Heather Greene and her team who have been recognized within the industry. Last year, Heather was named “2023 Master Blender of the Year,” and the distillery’s Master Distiller Marlene Holmes was recently recognized as the “2024 Master Distiller of the Year” by the Women of Whiskey Awards. As Unabridged refers to a book that has not been edited, Milam & Greene offers this product at cask-strength and non-chill filtered. 

Unabridged Volume 3 follows in the footsteps of its prestigious predecessors. Unabridged Volume 1 debuted in 2022 and was recognized as a Double Platinum winner in the esteemed Ascot Awards. Unabridged Volume 2 was unveiled in 2023 to even better reviews and was also recognized as a Double Platinum winner in the Ascot Awards and listed in the Top 25 Whiskeys of 2023 by acclaimed whiskey expert Fred Minnick.  

For this year’s release, the Milam & Greene expert team blind-tasted various barrels and specific blends before landing on an exact formula. Unabridged Volume 3 is a blend of 49 barrels that marries a 10-year-old and 9-year-old Kentucky bourbon for backbone with a 4-year-old Texas malted-rye bourbon for sweetness. Some Tennessee bourbon is added for vanilla and balance. The proof clocks in at 118 proof, making this blend perfect for drinking neat or with a couple of ice cubes.

“Customers love cask-strength whiskeys,” Greene said in a news release. “They had been asking us for years to create one, and we answered by creating the Unabridged series. The trick was to do something full of flavor and personality while still retaining elegance. Judging from the reaction at this year’s Kentucky Bourbon Festival, we nailed it once again.”
