A surprisingly good 100% Rye Whiskey — from Germany — made in a historic distillery.

About forty miles southeast of Berlin is located a lovely park called the Spreewald — a wetland reserve criss-crossed with canals and marshes fed by the Spree River. This is also home to the oldest distillery in Germany — the Spreewald Distillery. Three friends who owned a media agency together drove down to sample Whiskey there in 2015, and when the then-owner mentioned that he was looking for a successor, they sold their agency and launched a new dream. After significant updates and a new Whiskey still, they began to release their signature Spirits under the Stork Club brand.

Stork Club Straight Rye Whiskey is their heart and soul and most awarded Spirit to date with four Gold and Double Gold Medals so far. It is made from local German rye and malted rye — so you will taste only the pure grain. It has been aged in a combination of casks — American oak, Napoleon oak, ex-White Wine, and ex-Sherry. The result is a surprisingly great Rye Whiskey at 45% ABV in the old American style, but with decidedly European aging.

A decade ago there were only 6 brands of Rye Whiskey hailing from Kentucky, nowadays there are more than 50!
Rye - think of it as Bourbon's edgier cousin. It’s known for what many call a spicy or fruity flavor. Rye (distilled from at least 51% Rye) is not on the sweet side and tends to have a spicier body. That’s why the character of a cocktail made from Rye, instead of Bourbon, is drier.
George Washington famously loved his Rye Whiskey. In fact, after he served as the first president of the United States, he returned to his farm at Mount Vernon and started a small Rye distillery of his own.
Rye sparked the first revolution after the American Independence. It was called the Whiskey Rebellion, and it arose when the government tried to tax Whiskey and enforce the taxation on distillers. The lesson here? Don't mess with a Whiskey drinker's dram.
