Aged onsite at some of the oldest warehouses in the state, this 90 proof whiskey is rich in color with a golden-amber hue. Green River is made with locally sourced corn featuring a mashbill of 70% corn, 21% winter rye and 9% malted barley. The higher rye content contributes warming spice notes on the nose and palate.
We harvested our own Straight Whiskey and finished it in freshly emptied Dogfish Apple Brandy barrels as well as Angry Orchard Hard Apple Cider Barrels. Aromas of cinnamon & wildflower honey with a taste of fresh green apples, buttery dry oaked chardonnay & roasted chestnut.
A celebration of innovation, our rye whiskey is finished in hybrid American oak and cherry wood barrels for up to 6 months. Alternating cherry wood and oak staves toasted to custom specifications in the second finishing barrel, provide this 95% rye with unique bursts of flavor and represents the best of our collaborative, creative spirit.
Our master distiller scours the country for wheated bourbons no less than 4 years old to blend to create a smooth, full bodied, easy drinking bourbon for all to enjoy. Packaged at barrel strength 116 proof to retain the subtle flavors and aromas that would otherwise be lost in the proofing process.
