Corbin Cash Merced Rye is an estate-grown, 100% rye whiskey from the Souza family's farm and distillery in Atwater, in California's San Joaquin Valley. It is the distillery's flagship whiskey, bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV).
The family grew Merced rye, a California-native rye variety, as a winter cover crop for decades before they began harvesting and distilling it in 2009. Grain to glass, the rye is grown, distilled and aged on the property.
It ages in custom-charred American white oak barrels for up to six years, then is proofed down to make an approachable, smooth sipper that lets the botanical, spicy character of the estate rye shine.
A true California farm whiskey, it is a distinctive gift for rye lovers.
American rye whiskey is made from a mash of at least 51% rye and aged in new charred oak, giving it a spicier, drier character than bourbon, with notes of pepper, herbs and baking spice.
