Detailed Description

As far as whiskey is concerned, Nevada-grown corn appears to be the distillery’s primary ingredient. Its primary whiskeys are a corn whiskey and a bourbon, which, co-owner Chris Shanks points out in a 2015 interview, is higher in corn than the required 51%, Most of this distillery’s whiskeys, it seems, are aged in small, 10-gallon oak barrels as opposed to the normal 53-gallon barrels.

The Depot’s Rye Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: Starts off very sweet, smelling like a sweet, slightly sour apple with a strong undercurrent of wheat, sweet and tangy in a way that’s more like a pint of gose than a dram of rye. That sweetness mellows a bit into something more akin to a pear, with notes of lilac and cardamom.

Palate: Still sweet on the entry, but it hits the tongue more like a typical rye – starts out as a bit earthier of a vanilla but quickly starts to become more complex with notes of oak, cereal, and then spices. That spiciness builds as it sits on the tongue, but never to a point that’s overwhelming.

Finish: Swallowing leaves a thicker, sweet residue that once again flares up with peppery, rye-like spice in the next couple minutes.
