Award-Winning Bourbon Brand, Inventory & Finishing IP – Asset Sale


Asking Price: $235,000


Seller Financing Available
Asset Sale Description
Unique opportunity to acquire an established premium American bourbon brand as a turnkey asset acquisition. The offering includes substantial finished bottled bourbon inventory, trademarks and brand assets, proprietary bourbon finishing formulations and processes, original RTD formulation IP, packaging, website and digital assets, and established industry relationships. No distillery real estate or production facility is included.

The current Horse Neck portfolio includes Double Barrel 101 Proof, Sherry Finish 95 Proof, and Founders Barrel Select 9-Year Bourbon. Double Barrel was awarded a Gold Medal at the 2025 American Distilling Institute International Spirits Competition, providing third-party validation of product quality.

A significant component of the acquisition is the brand's proprietary product-development intellectual property. This includes the finishing specifications and processes developed for the Double Barrel and Sherry Finish bourbons, along with formulas and development IP from Horse Neck's original ready-to-drink portfolio. While the RTD products are not currently being marketed, the formulas provide an acquirer with the opportunity to reactivate, reposition or build upon these products in the future.

The acquisition also includes brand trademarks, packaging and artwork, website/domain and digital properties, photography and creative assets, marketing and sales materials, along with introductions to production, supplier, distribution and industry relationships where appropriate and transferable.

Horse Neck represents an opportunity for an existing spirits company, distributor, importer, beverage entrepreneur or strategic buyer to acquire a developed, market-ready premium spirits platform without the time and expense required to build a new brand and product portfolio from the ground up.

Seller will provide reasonable transition assistance, and seller financing may be considered for a qualified buyer with a substantial down payment. Detailed inventory, product and IP information is available to qualified parties.
