Broken Barrel Whiskey Company is a Los Angeles, California–based producer in the beverage manufacturing sector focused on premium whiskeys. The founder, Seth Benhaim, built the business around an experimental barrel-finishing approach that blends used bourbon barrels with French oak and Spanish sherry casks to form its Oak Bill program. Early production drew on barrels sourced from Owensboro, Kentucky as part of the initial distilling experiment. Its core lineup centers on Kentucky straight bourbon and rye whiskeys, with a non-traditional finishing practice that influences flavor, color, and aroma. In recent years, the company has pursued collaborations to broaden its expression range, including a 2023 partnership with Laurel Canyon Spirits for a Black Hjerte release.
