They prioritize the use of local and organic ingredients, and make everything in-house from milling, mashing, fermenting, and distilling, all the way through to bottling. While many still know them for their vodka and gin line of products, their more recently released straight whiskey is aged at least four years in 53-gallon new American oak barrels, and bottled non-chill filtered to preserve the spirits full complexity.

Kentucky style rye, on paper, looks like reluctant rye, just barely not bourbon. Most of the big distilleries that bother making rye at all make it at the legal minimum of 51% rye, leaving room for a lot of corn. In our experience though, tasting samples of Jim Beam's rye over the last few years, the profile is often still assertively rye forward for some reason, whether it be a difference in the grain they are sourcing, or perhaps a particularly rye-friendly yeast strain in the fermentation. Whatever it is, it makes great Kentucky rye, with enough richness from the corn to welcome in new rye drinkers, but still unabashedly scratching that spicy, herbal, complex rye itch that we have constantly. We generally pick out a barrel each of Knob Creek bourbon and rye together each year at the same time, and though the bourbon is always top tier stuff, the Rye really gets us giddy.
