Rogue Farms Oregon Rye Whiskey (Old Bottling)

Rogue Farms Oregon Rye Whiskey (Old Bottling)

In 1988, near a scenic stream called Lithia Creek in Ashland, Oregon, Jack Joyce and Bob Woodell, fraternity brothers at the University of Oregon, opened the doors to Rogue Brewery. For fifteen years, Rogue Brewery brewed beers such as Dead Guy Ale, Dad's Little Helper and Brutal IPA under the tutelage of John Maier, Rogue Brewery's brewmaster.Then, with the addition of Master Distiller John Couchot, Rogue Spirits was born. Couchot, who earned a bachelor's degree in chemistry at Evergreen State College in Washington, was a professional chemist for six years before jumping ship to make spirits. This special Rogue Farms offering is a small-batch whiskey, handcrafted from Rogue Farms Floor-Malted Dream Rye, Micro-Malted Dream Rye, and Micro-Malted Risk Malts, and fermented using Pacman yeast. This rye is a 100% Oregon terroir whiskey, plowed, disced, harrowed, seeded, fed, watered, threshed, winnowed, malted, milled, mashed, fermented, distilled, smithed, barrel-aged, and bottled by hand.
