The Story of Ten Day Bourbon

In the heart of Kentucky, where the rolling hills and picturesque countryside serve as a backdrop to a rich history of bourbon-making, a unique story has emerged. Founded by three doctors with a passion for fine bourbon and a deep respect for its heritage, Ten Day Bourbon pays tribute to an extraordinary group of medical professionals who sustained the spirit of bourbon during the Prohibition era.

Established in 2023, Ten Day Bourbon Whiskey is not just another bourbon company; it's a celebration of the enduring bond between the medical profession and America's native spirit. The name "Ten Day" is a salute to the valiant doctors and dentists of the Prohibition era who ingeniously wrote ten-day prescriptions for whiskey to care for their patients. Despite the constraints of the Volstead Act, these healthcare professionals remained dedicated to their patients' wellbeing and, in doing so, supported local bourbon distilleries through those challenging times.

Our founding doctors were inspired by the stories of these trailblazing physicians and sought to honor them by creating a bourbon that would appeal to their fellow professionals in the medical and dental fields. With a steadfast commitment to excellence, they meticulously crafted a bourbon worthy of the calling, that embodies the courage and determination of those who came before them.

As we raise our glasses to toast the past, the present, and the future, we remember the doctors who defied convention during Prohibition and kept the whiskey flowing, Ten Days at a time.
