Three Chord Bourbon Expands Their Backstage Series of Whiskey Releases with Three Chord Bourbon x UNDERØATH Bourbon Commemorating the 20th anniversary of “They’re Only Chasing Safety”.
The blend of straight bourbons was crafted by Aaron Gillespie himself at the Whiskey House in Nashville, an invite-only club that houses one of America’s largest collections of bourbon. There, Aaron and a group of bourbon experts tasted whiskeys from distilleries across the country of various ages and types. They managed to create a blend that not only commemorates the 20th anniversary of “They’re Only Chasing Safety,” but could also hold its own amongst all of the amazing bourbons they were surrounded by in the Whiskey House.
After consulting with the band, everyone was on board with this being exactly what they all wanted.
I love bourbon so so much and have never even dreamed of making a blend, but Three Chord gave us that opportunity. This one was made with love. It’s what we wanna drink and what we wanna share, so pour it tall and enjoy with those you love.
-Aaron Gillespie
