Early Release from Montgomery Distillery

Wednesday, October 7, 2015
In a lot of situations, an early release isn't exactly something to be proud of. But in the case of Montgomery Distillery's first public whiskey offering, early just happens to be right on time.

As we've said here many times before, Montgomery Distillery in downtown Missoula, Montana is the archetype for micro and craft distilleries. From its inception, owner and operator Ryan Montgomery has maintained a singular vision, to build a perfectly scaled micro distillery crafting incredible spirits while keeping nearly aspect of the process in-house. The objective: value, quality, and of course, whiskey.

Leveraging sales of their excellent clear spirits, Ryan has been patiently toiling on his true loves - outside of family, Montana, and motorcycles - single malt and rye whiskey. As everyone knows, making good whiskey is largely a matter of commitment, something that Montgomery has in spades. It may be an early release, but you can be certain that it wasn't premature.



   
Montgomery Distillery’s “Early Release Straight Rye Whiskey” is the first released by our small Montana distillery, and is comprised of a 100% rye grain mash bill, milled, fermented, distilled and aged at Montgomery Distillery in new charred oak 53 gallon bourbon barrels.  This particular label was only released through our tasting room in Missoula, Montana and was limited to a little less than 2000 bottles.  However, this whiskey will be released in wider form, and on a regular basis, starting in Spring 2016 under the label “Sudden Wisdom Straight Rye Whiskey.” 

Montgomery Distillery has been open for three years and offers a variety of clear spirits - such as Quicksilver Vodka, Whyte Laydie Gin, and Skadi Aquavit – while at the same time producing rye and single malt whiskey.  We also own a distillery farm in Central Montana that has begun (this year) supplying us with winter wheat (for our clear spirits) and rye grain (for our rye whiskey).  Please note: the Early Release Rye Whiskey was not made from our farm rye, as we just harvested the first crop about a month ago.

Be sure and swing in some time to have a taste!
