This distillery located in Charleston, South Carolina is doing something we’d like to see more distilleries do — creating new and original flavors with their spirits. As they say, what’s the point of trying to “Out-Makers Mark Makers Mark”? Founders Scott Blackwell and Ann Marshall are foodies at heart, so they started with the ingredients, eventually settling on an unusual 100% red corn varietal for their bourbon from nearby James Island that had nearly gone extinct. For their rye, they settled on a 100% Abruzzi rye mash bill, which features significantly less starch (and so arguably more flavor!) than conventional rye varietals used to make whiskey today. The results are plain to see — extraordinarily flavorful spirits that are truly originals, and we’re proud to carry their entire line.
This is in addition to two cask strength single barrel picks of Jimmy Red, selected by Members of Drammers Club.
