KC-based Tom's Town Launches Rye Whiskey
Kansas City, MO — May 10, 2024 - Tom's Town Distilling Co. today announces a limited release of its acclaimed Bottled-in-Bond Straight Rye Whiskey in liquor stores and restaurants across Missouri and Kansas. This release is a special allocation of our meticulously crafted whiskey, previously enjoyed exclusively at the first legal distillery in downtown Kansas City since Prohibition – Tom’s Town.
Tom's Town crafts its Straight Rye Whiskey with the highest dedication to quality and tradition. The whiskey is made from Missouri grains consisting of 64% rye, 32% corn, and 4% malted barley. It is aged for four years in charred oak barrels, resulting in a robust flavor profile with rich notes of vanilla, cocoa, and a delicate hint of oak.
“Bottled-in-Bond” is more than puffery – it's a testament to the spirit's quality and authenticity. It signifies that the spirit has met stringent legal requirements set forth by the U.S. government's Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. Specifically, the whiskey must be the product of one distillation season by a single distiller at one distillery, aged for a minimum of four years in a federally bonded warehouse, and bottled at 100 proof, ensuring high quality and consistency.
The availability of Tom's Town Straight Rye Whiskey at liquor stores and restaurants is a significant milestone for the distillery. It's more than just an expansion of the product portfolio – a celebration of artisanal craftsmanship and a nod to Kansas City's spirited and colorful history. As it grows, Tom's Town remains committed to offering our community and spirits enthusiasts an exceptional product that tells a unique story with each sip. We are excited to share this limited release with you.
Due to the limited supply, Tom's Town has allocated its Straight Rye Whiskey to liquor stores and restaurants in Missouri and Kansas. The distillery encourages everyone to seize this unique opportunity to experience the deep, artisanal flavors that define Tom's Town.
