Middle West Cask Strength Dark Pumpernickel Rye Whiskey 750ml
Most rye whiskeys lean on standard cereal rye — Middle West Spirits took a different path. Their Cask Strength Dark Pumpernickel Rye is built on an 80% dark pumpernickel rye mash bill, a rare grain that delivers a softer, more nuanced spice than conventional rye. Rounded out with Non-GMO Yellow Corn, Soft Red Winter Wheat, and Two-Row Barley, this is a true 4-grain rye whiskey — and at cask strength, every layer of it comes through unfiltered and unapologetic.
Distilled in Columbus, Ohio, Middle West Spirits has built a reputation for grain-forward craft whiskeys that challenge category norms. This expression is their boldest statement: no dilution, no compromise, just the whiskey as it came off the barrel.
