The Distillarium No Mans Whizkey is a cask-strength straight rye whiskey from Yakima, Washington, made from 95% Gazelle rye and 5% malted barley and bottled at 116 proof (58% ABV).
No Mans Whizkey is a tribute to the champion reining stallion of the same name, affectionately known as Fritos. Just as the horse executed every circle, spin and stop with unparalleled accuracy, the master distiller takes premium Gazelle rye, distills it with precision and ages it in charred American oak barrels, then bottles it without dilution at full cask strength. It earned a Double Platinum medal at the 2024 ASCOT Awards.
Bold and spicy, it shows rye grain and black pepper with fruit cocktail, vanilla cone, black tea, cedar and tobacco, finishing powerful and long.
The stallion label makes it a striking gift for horse lovers and rye fans.
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.
Gazelle rye is a winter rye variety prized by craft distillers.
At cask strength, a few drops of water open the fruit.
Serve it neat in a Glencairn glass.
A large ice cube makes it easier to sip.
It makes a powerful Manhattan.
Pair a pour with smoked meats.
Rodeo and horse fans will love the story.
