100% Regenerative Organic Straight Rye Whiskey Pour

The Resurgence of Rye in a Glass

We are delighted to announce the release of our first ever (and possibly the first ever) 100% Regenerative Organic Certified (ROC) Rye Whiskey. This special release will be made available at our R.O.C. Rye Whiskey Release Celebration on Saturday, July 27th at the distillery. Our 100% Malted Ryman Rye Straight Whiskey is crafted from locally grown rye by our dear friends, Michael and Sarah Jones of Jones Farms Organics, in the heart of the San Luis Valley (SLV), Colorado.

The Emmer Wheat Whiskey Project

Dry Land Distillers is committed to using grains that are appropriate for the arid west. Many heirloom and ancient grains seem to do well in arid, tough growing conditions. We’re learning that many of these ancient grains are also more nutritious and flavorful than modern, commoditized grains.
