Daylight Wine & Spirits, based in California, combines winemaking and distillation operations by finishing whiskeys in its own wine barrels. Ammunition Straight Bourbon is made from 100% Kentucky-distilled liquid. After initial maturation, it spends an additional three months in French oak barrels previously used for Ammunition Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon.
