The most Texan Rye.

You know how you get all these great ideas when you're having a drink with your buddies? The kinds that involve quitting your boring old day job and reaching for something greater? Most of those grand schemes never see the light of day. The one that came to a group of friends in the heart of Houston, Texas, became Yellow Rose Distilling. The first legal Whiskey distillery in Houston became operational in 2010, named after a folk heroine and nestled smack dab in the middle of the city. Since the launch of their first product in 2012, their juice has brought home several awards, with Yellow Rose opening a tasting room and expanding considerably over the years.

Yellow Rose Harris County Straight Bourbon Whiskey is not your usual Rye. It’s Texan right to its core, adding tasty layers to that classic Rye spice. Double pot-distilled and hand-made in Houston, it’s made from 100% Texas-grown grains. The mash bill consists of Yellow Corn, Elbon rye, and San Jacinsto Malted Barley. This dram then spent 30 months patiently waiting and enduring the southern Texan heat and humidity. It came out at 92 proof, showcasing the Texas terroir and adding an underlying sweetness with flavors of vanilla, caramel, and coconut to that typical Rye spice. Sip on it neat, on the rocks, or make a craft Rye-forward cocktail.

Pinhook’s high-proof Bourbon won Gold at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, while the Straight Rye Whiskey won Double Gold the following year. In 2021, their Bourbon War Vertical Series 5 Year and the 2021 Flagship Bourbon won a Gold Medal each, with a Double Gold going to their Tiz Rye Time Vertical Series 5 Year. Pinhook is evidently doing something right!
Bourbon only needs to be placed in a new oak container for a few seconds to be called Bourbon. Fresh from the still and unaged Bourbon is called a White Dog. Recently, many of the larger distillers have started packaging this harsh, clear grain spirit for sale.
Bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn.
Bourbon Is a ''new barrel Spirit'': One of the legal requirements for Bourbon is that it only be aged in brand new oak charred barrels.
Sure, Kentucky gets all the press when it comes to Bourbon. And with good reason—nearly 95% of it is produced there. But Bourbon can be made anywhere as long as it's within the United States. Just ask states with budding distilleries like Illinois and New York.

Pinhooking means purchasing and rearing a foal based on its pedigree and either selling it or turning it into a champ racing horse. The same idea is behind Pinhook Bourbon: they source young Whiskey to mature and blend it into a blue-ribbon sipping Bourbon.
