Gryphon & Grain Bourbon Whiskey Idc pays homage to the rich mythology and legends that inspire its name. The bourbon takes its name from Queen Califa's legendary army of 500 gryphons, a mythical and majestic creature that combines the body, tail, and hind legs of a lion with the head, wings, and talons of an eagle. These mythical gryphons were renowned for their role in guarding treasure and priceless possessions, embodying a sense of valor and protectiveness. In the spirit of these legends, Gryphon & Grain Bourbon Whiskey Idc captures the essence of these mythical guardians and the treasures they safeguard.
