Midnight Rye

Midnight Rye

California port wine walks into a small town lowa bar and meets American rye whiskey. The rest is history. 

Bold and unexpected with a sweet finish. Inspired by our Prohibition past, back when the bootleggers of Templeton, Iowa made whiskey by moonlight to stay a step ahead of the law.

Midnight Rye is aged in charred New American Oak barrels then blended with California port wine. Distilled in Indiana, Aged in Templeton.

Turns out good things do happen after midnight.

Unexpectedly deep, layered with complexity in each sip.

Tasting Notes

 

Aroma

Dark cherries, figs, and a subtle hint of spiced orange peel.

Palate

Cinnamon, clove, and a touch of dark chocolate. Silky, full-bodied texture that coats the palate.

Finish

A lingering warmth and satisfaction, with touches of dried fruits, oak, and black pepper.

We don't chase medals, but — it's nice to earn 'em.
