Lost Lantern has done what no one else has: created the first bourbon blend sourced from all 50 states. This isn’t a marketing concept—it’s a physical reality built by personally visiting every distillery in the blend to hand-select the barrels. Full transparency is baked in: every single distillery is listed by name on the back label.The range now includes three distinct expressions:
- 100 Proof: The approachable, everyday entry point—balanced and accessible while still delivering the unprecedented breadth of all 50 states.
- Cask Strength: The undiluted powerhouse. Same 50-state composition, but at full strength where the raw complexity and character of fifty different distilleries come through with maximum intensity.
Then there’s the 1776 Edition—the true standout.Hand-numbered and strictly limited, this version narrows the focus to bourbon sourced exclusively from the original 13 founding states. It’s a deliberate, patriotic tribute timed to America’s 250th anniversary: a celebration of the nation’s roots rather than its full modern map. By concentrating on the historic distilleries of the Thirteen Colonies, the 1776 Edition offers a deeper, more concentrated expression of America’s bourbon heritage while maintaining the same radical transparency that defines the entire United States of Bourbon project.
