About Koopers Whiskey:

Koopers Whiskey (formally Kooper Family Whiskey Co.) is a family-owned blending house based in Ledbetter, Texas, that specializes in aging and blending sourced whiskeys to create unique flavor profiles. Founded in 2012 by Troy and Michelle Kooper, the company distinguishes itself by "transforming" high-quality American whiskeys from partners in Indiana and Tennessee through maturation in the volatile Texas climate.

Core Products and Flavor Profiles

Koopers focuses on blending and finishing rather than distilling raw spirit, often using custom barrel programs and limestone-filtered spring water.

• Kooper Family Rye: Their flagship product, featuring a label of Troy’s grandfather, a 1944 Armed Forces boxing champion.
  • Profile: Notes of rye spice, raisins, apples, and dill with a sweet caramel apple finish.
• Sweetheart of the Rodeo Bourbon: A 90-proof "high-rye" bourbon distilled in Indiana and aged for 4+ years in Texas.
  • Profile: Sweet vanilla, toasted maple syrup, caramel, and citrus.
• Barrel Reserve / Specialty Releases: High-proof or finished expressions, such as Runaway Rye (aged 8+ years) and Cognac Cask Finished Rye.
