A distillery worker accidentally mixed straight bourbon with straight rye, owned up to it, and rather than throw it out, Jimmy Russell tasted it and decided to release it. Hence the name. Batch 302 is the first release, bottled in 2013.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blend is 78% six-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon and 22% four-year-old Kentucky Straight Rye, bottled at 91 proof.
