Based in the Charlotte area, Oaklore is a North Carolina craft distillery known for its distinctive four-grain mash bill, extended aging, and innovative cask finishes. Its flagship Four Grain Bourbon brings together corn, wheat, rye, and malted barley to create a layered and complex flavor profile.
