Corbin Cash Whiskies
The organic matter left in the soil after each sweet potato harvest means our Merced rye is grown in a completely different terroir than midwestern grains, where the same fields are used repeatedly for grains only. As a result, the flavors created in our rye whiskey are completely unique and reflective of California’s Central Valley. Whereas most American rye whiskies are characterized by a spicy, herbaceous character, our Merced rye is renowned for its earthier notes, compounded with flavors of sweet oatmeal and a dusty, graham cracker finish.
Corbin Cash 1917 Barrel Proof 5 Yr Rye 123 PF
Bottled at 61.5% barrel proof ABV, the 1917 Merced rye whiskey is a bolder, richer, and more intense expression of our standard edition rye. Because of its lower starch content, Merced rye gives an entirely different flavor to whiskey than a standard midwestern rye grain. On top of that, our estate-grown rye fields are constantly rotating, functioning as the cover crop for our sweet potatoes.
