The Furthur Story
Furthur Whisky is named in honor of “Furthur,” a 1939 school bus that was owned by novelist Ken Kesey, author of best selling novel, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. A portion of the proceeds from your purchase will be used towards the Bus Preservation Project. We are on a mission to restore the bus to its original glory and preserve it for the future. The bus is symbolic of a time of change and encompasses a freedom we continue to chase.
Get on the bus and let’s go Furthur!
