Crittenden's Cut Above Bottled in Bond Bourbon is a handcrafted straight bourbon whiskey from Crittenden Distillery, located in Hancock County, Kiln, Mississippi. Founded in 2015 by father-and-son duo James and Matt Crittenden, the distillery has earned a strong reputation for producing quality southern Mississippi whiskeys with a commitment to transparency in their production methods.

This Bottled in Bond expression meets the strict legal requirements of the Bottled-in-Bond Act: it is the product of a single distillery, produced in a single distilling season, aged for a minimum of four years, and bottled at exactly 100 proof (50% ABV). Aged for four years in Hancock County, Mississippi's warm southern climate, the spirit develops rich character in less time than cooler northern climates allow.

The mash bill consists of 72% corn, 17% rye, and 11% malted barley, yielding a corn-forward sweetness balanced by notable rye spice. The palate offers warm vanilla, caramel, and baking spices, rounded out by a mild tobacco character typical of southern-aged bourbons. It finishes long and warm with hints of cinnamon and black pepper.
