Distillery Information

The distillery selected a barrel of the sweet, delicate 51% rye/ 45% corn/ 4% barley traditional straight rye and blended it with barrels of the big and bold 51% rye/ 49% malted barley straight rye.
Rye's mash bill must, by law, consist of at least 51% rye. Most rye whiskeys use malted barley or corn as the other grains. As with bourbon, ground grain is mixed with water and a bit of mash from a previous distillation, in what's known as a sour-mash process. This introduces yeasts from the previous distillation.
Producers of Award Winning Smoke Wagon Bourbon and Silver Dollar Vodka. Located in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Straight Rye Whiskey is a subcategory under the above broad definition, requiring rye whiskey to also be aged in new, charred oak for at least two years. It also can't include any additives in terms of flavour or caramel colouring.Frey Ranch Bottled-In-Bond Straight Rye Whiskey is made with 100% Winter Cereal Rye. While it's rare to feature a 100% single grain mash bill, we wanted to showcase the quality of our slow-grown Rye grains without the impact of any other flavors.
