Product Description
Milam & Greene Port Finished Rye Whiskey is brought from Indiana to Texas where it is batched in the Blanco rickhouse and finished in old Port wine casks from Portugal. The Texan sun influences the rate and strength of flavor imparted into the whiskey. Some casks take longer than others, so the expert team tastes the whiskey finishing the in Port wine casks regularly to determine when optimal flavors are achieved. Casks are then batched together and proofed before bottling.

Wine EnthusiastComplex and enticing, this rich take on rye has a notably deep, ruddy hue, with toffee and red fruit aromas. The big, bold palate opens with dusty cocoa and mild cinnamon. Adding water brings out plush butterscotch and peanut brittle, finishing with a red fruit note and plenty of warming spice.
Rye whiskey, a distinct category within American whiskey, is primarily crafted from a mash bill containing at least 51% rye grain, contributing to its bold and spicy flavor profile. Aged in charred new oak barrels, rye whiskey often showcases a robust character with notes of pepper, fruit, and sometimes a hint of earthiness, making it a preferred choice for those seeking a more assertive and complex whiskey experience. Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails, rye whiskey has gained popularity for its unique and flavorful contributions to the world of spirits.
