We’re about to ruin you by letting you in on a well-kept secret. You’ve been warned. Deep in the heart of Southern Illinois curiosity about the fusion between coffee and bourbon lead to what we call Bootlegger. Ask around and the cult following behind now “Ghost Roast” will describe why they’ve left every other brand behind.
So what is it and is it just hype?
Bootlegger started in 2020 as we partnered and received freshly dumped bourbon barrels from the best distilleries in Kentucky. We hired a priest, put on our fanciest duds and married a sweet-smelling coffee bean and rustic (still hungover from the night before) bourbon barrel. Love brewed hot and months later Bootlegger- Bourbon Barrel Aged Coffee entered our lives.
So what’s the big deal?
Through innovation and continuous improvement, we've expanded the barrel aged options to six unique varieties. Our Patent Pending process had driven down cost, expanded our abilities for variety and reduced aging from three months to three weeks! Bootlegger, Honey Whiskey, Cherry Pipes, Blackberry Brandy, Irish Whiskey & Blueberry Lager now represent the most incredible aged coffee on the entire market.
Cold Blooded Coffee & Roastery is now working to make this available in stores near you! In the meantime, have it shipped directly to your doorstep and stay tuned for all our new Merch!
