Templeton Rye is located in the heart of Iowa, USA, and was founded in 2018 by Keith Kerkhoff and Scott Bush. The distillery aims to honor the legacy of Prohibition-era rye whisky produced in the same region, with a focus on quality and craftsmanship. Templeton Rye continues to operate under private ownership, bringing a contemporary twist to a historic spirit. With an annual production capacity of 1,900,000 liters, Templeton Rye utilizes modern distillation techniques to create its distinctive rye whisky. The distillery’s equipment features state-of-the-art pot stills and fermentation tanks, contributing to its unique flavor profile. The whisky is characterized by sweet notes of vanilla and malt on the nose, with additional hints of nuts and herbs. On the palate, drinkers can expect a blend of spices, sweetness, and a hint of chili, leading to a finish that is rich with malt, wheat, and chocolate nuances. Notable expressions include the Templeton Rye 6 Years and the standard Templeton Rye, both of which reflect the distillery's commitment to quality and tradition.
