Like all Boone County 12-year Ghost Collection-adjacent single barrels, BO575 is sourced from MGP in Lawrenceburg, Indiana (75% corn, 21% rye, 4% malted barley), bottled at cask strength without chill filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe \"Proof Is In The Puddin'\" name is vintage Boone County label personality — the distillery has a tradition of playful, Southern-expression barrel names alongside the more straightforward retailer picks.
