Join us for an unforgettable evening of fine food and whiskey, as we taste the LeGrand Kentucky Bourbon on March 19th at 7:00 pm in the Wine Cave.
A Kentucky Straight Bourbon inspired by the journey of former Rutgers University football star Eric LeGrand after his spinal cord injury in 2010. Crafted with precision and patience, this bourbon resonates with Eric's belief in celebrating personal victories and trusting the process.
In October 2010, Rutgers University football star Eric LeGrand sustained a spinal cord injury at his C3 and C4 vertebrae during a fourth-quarter play at MetLife Stadium. While the initial prognosis was grim, Eric demonstrated his titan strength by shattering all expectations for his recovery and rehabilitation.
Eric’s tireless spirit and appreciation of whiskey led him to found Eric LeGrand Whiskey. As Eric learned more about the journey of a Kentucky Straight Bourbon, he found that the precision when creating the mash bill, the patience required during the barrel aging process, and the trust in the overall process paralleled the precision, patience, and confidence needed in his grueling recovery.
