Wildrye Distilling 10th Anniversary Five Drops Bourbon

From field to flask, this celebratory release captures the soul of Montana. We harvest sweet corn from our family’s Southwest Montana fields at peak ripeness—when the kernels burst with sugar—and mash it with Central Montana–grown and malted barley, all cut with cold mountain water. Distilled slowly on custom-built pot stills and laid to rest in charred, virgin American oak, this straight bourbon develops a deep, rounded character: warm caramel and toasted oak on the nose, silky vanilla and sweet corn on the palate, and a lingering finish touched with baking spice. For our 10th Anniversary edition, we finish Five Drops in Port casks, layering in notes of ripe cherry, fig, and a ruby-hued richness that elevates every sip. It’s a glass of Montana—grown, distilled, and perfected here—crafted for firelit evenings, slow dinners, and moments worth remembering.
