Wright and Brown Rye Whiskey (750 ml)

Description

First Released in 2016, Our Straight Rye is one of our signature spirits and the star of our core line-up.

An important source of Rye in the mashbill is the Brown family farm up in the Mattole Valley of Humboldt County. It is an heirloom varietal that is gaining favor again with the resurgence of California Grain farming. It’s organic and unmalted; giving our rye a floral, grassy aroma.

Our unique California Rye is unlike anything you’ve tasted before.  The local terroir gives the whiskey a wonderful grassy quality, reminiscent of the golden rolling bay area hills with a bruleéd creaminess, and a dark fruitiness of figs and plums on the palate. 

All milling, mashing, distilling, bottling, and aging are all painstaking done here in house to make sure that each part of the process is executed with the utmost care. This includes details like using a high percentage of malted barley so we are able to ferment without the use of external enzymes, preserving the purity of our whiskey. 

The Rye is then barrel-aged for at least 3 years in #3 Charred American White Oak.
