Product Description
Benjamin Prichard’s Lincoln County Lightning 750ml is an authentic, unaged American whiskey that pays tribute to Tennessee’s earliest distilling traditions. Curated by blackbook for its historical significance and no-compromise production, this bottle represents whiskey in its rawest, most honest form—bold, grain-forward, and unapologetically powerful.
Distilled from a traditional corn mash and bottled without barrel aging, Lincoln County Lightning delivers a clean yet assertive profile that showcases the spirit before oak ever enters the picture. Unlike novelty “moonshine,” this is a serious, professionally distilled whiskey with real depth, balance, and purpose.
At blackbook, we value spirits that tell a clear story. Lincoln County Lightning does exactly that—offering a direct connection to pre-barrel American whiskey and a glimpse into the foundation of modern bourbon.
