Gold Flake
Amidst the shadows of the earth we toiled, where gold, like secrets, was fiercely coiled. For every nugget won, a tale was spun; in the heart of the mine, under the weight of the sun.
In the rugged terrain of Segenhoe, miners carved out their destinies with relentless determination and raw grit. These were men of courage—dreamers, wanderers, and rebels who traversed the stretch from Golden Point to Old Gully’s Edge, driven by the unyielding pursuit of gold.
By the mid-19th century, the Crown, eyeing the miners’ hard-earned treasures, imposed oppressive license fees that branded these hardworking souls as outlaws. This harsh decree forced the miners into the shadows, pushing them to delve deeper into the treacherous bowels of the earth. In the intricate network of tunnels beneath Segenhoe, they toiled in solidarity, extracting gold from the reluctant clutches of the underground, secreting away their glittering haul in hollowed-out bottles of liquor as a cunning means of concealment.
Tragedy struck one ill-fated night when the very ground they had burrowed into with hopes and dreams violently collapsed. The catastrophic event sealed the tunnels, entombing both the miners and their accumulated fortunes beneath layers of earth and stone. Six lives were abruptly extinguished, and with them, generations of stories and thousands in gold vanished into the silent depths of Segenhoe.
Leaden Hearts Segenhoe Tombstone 24ct. Gold Flake Whiskey is a tribute to the spirit of these miners—imbued with resilience, shadowed by greed, marked by triumph, and ultimately, shaped by tragedy. Aged in oak barrels and meticulously double-barreled, each bottle is infused with 24ct gold flakes, symbolizing the elusive treasure forever lost to the earth. This whiskey is not just a drink, but a rich, smooth narrative steeped in the history and drama of those bygone days.
It is a salute to the undying human spirit and a remembrance of those who dared to reach deep into the darkness in search of light. Every sip of Segenhoe Tombstone Whiskey is a tribute to their legacy, offering a taste of their enduring story and the golden dreams that remain buried beneath Segenhoe.
