A unique Straight Rye that’s finished in Port Wine casks and won Double Gold in 2019.
Once upon a time, the entrepreneur Marsha Milam visited a Kentucky warehouse and fell in love with the elusive art of Whiskey-making. She partnered with some of the world’s best Whiskey professionals: Whiskey expert and author Heather Greene, Whiskey veteran Marlene Holmes with 30 years of experience, and Master Brewer Jordan Osborne who brought 60 years of combined experience to the table. Impressive, right? They’re not about forming some exclusive Whiskey expert circle, though, as they always start making Whiskey with the consumer in mind. The team kickstarted their distilling operation in the Texas Hill Country and the rest is history. They have both smaller 300-gallon and a bigger 1,000-gallon copper-pot stills in the Texas Hill Country, plus classic column stills in Bardstown, Kentucky. They use their proprietary yeast and grain recipes and age their juice across 4 states to ensure a variety of flavors.
Sourced in Indiana, Milam & Greene Port Wine Cask Finish Straight Rye Whiskey rests in the Blanco rickhouse in Texas where it’s finished in old Port Wine casks from Portugal. The aging process under the Texas sun brings out unique and robust flavors on the rich and velvety palate. Some casks take longer than others to mature to perfection, however, but the team tastes them individually before batching them together. Savor it any way you like — neat, on the rocks, or in a Whiskey-forward cocktail like a Highball. Oh, and BTW, this one won Double Gold at the 2019 San Francisco International Spirits Competition AND it was awarded 97 points by Wine Enthusiast.
