NV36: A Smooth Tribute to the 36th State

NV36 is Nevada’s sipping whiskey. This premium blend of aged whiskey and bourbon uses pure Sierra Nevada water. It is a clean, smooth tribute to the 36th state.

I keep the focus simple: heritage, water, and balance. The result tastes rugged and refined. It pours easy. It finishes clean.

NV36 in One Minute

NV36 reflects Nevada’s “Battle Born” identity. Nevada becomes the 36th state on October 31, 1864. The bottle design keeps that reminder front and center.
