Legend has it that it was Al Capone's whiskey of choice, the one he served to friends and family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brand was legally re-established in Templeton by Scott Bush and Meryl Kerkhoff, the son of an original bootlegger, and introduced in 2006, and in 2017 Templeton broke ground on its own distillery in Iowa. Based on the original Prohibition-era recipe and aged in charred new oak barrels, it honors the town's bootlegging heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn unmistakable rye, Templeton is smooth and spicy with a clean finish: a clean, well-balanced rye that delivers classic Iowa rye character, spicy, smooth and endlessly versatile. It is a Gold Medal winner at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSmall town, strong spirit. Enjoy it neat or on the rocks, or let its spice drive a Manhattan, an Old Fashioned or a Sazerac.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmerican 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rye spice, oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth and spicy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clean.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Templeton Rye, Templeton, Iowa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rye whiskey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charred new American oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90 proof (45% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat, or stir a Manhattan or a Sazerac.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the story behind Templeton?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Prohibition-era bootleg rye from Templeton, Iowa.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWas it really Al Capone's whiskey?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLegend says it was his whiskey of choice, The Good Stuff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does it taste like?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSmooth and spicy with a clean finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/rye\"\u003eRye collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Templeton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68199306690869,"sku":"VWS_5021","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-34429.webp?v=1794507304","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/templeton-rye-whiskey-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
