Charleston Distilling Co. Calhoun’s Rye Whiskey

Charleston Distilling Co. takes its approach to farm-to-table spirit production rather seriously. Calhoun’s Rye Whiskey, for example, begins with South Carolina-raised Wrens Abruzzi rye which is milled at their on-site millhouse in Summerton, SC. The grist is then transported down the road to their distillery in Charleston, where the brewing, distilling, and oak-aging all happens.

Charleston Distilling Co. Calhoun’s Rye Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: The smell of this whiskey is mild with desserty notes and a bit of balancing dry dustiness.

Palate: First, a wash of thickness punctuated by a creamsicle-like sweet note which allays the initial palate burn.

Finish: Finish is long and smooth.
