Deerhammer set out to distill a uniquely Colorado rye whiskey in the Fall of 2016. We havethievedsamples over the years, with batches varying in maturation from 2-4 years.Ultimatelywe landed on a selection of some of the most extraordinary barrels for our Pot Still Rye debut bottling. Ongoing, we will marry together our absolute favorite barrels into a singular annual small batch release.

It is 4 day open fermented and double pot distilled on our custom built squat-head copper pot stills. Maturation occurs at 8,000ft in heavy toast, #2 char new oak barrels.
