Woodinville Straight Bourbon Whiskey: Small-Batch Mastery from Washington State
Process & Profile
Woodinville Straight Bourbon Whiskey is crafted in Washington using a meticulous small-batch process. Every bottle begins with a mash bill of 72% corn, 22% rye, and 6% malted barley, all grown exclusively for Woodinville on the Omlin Family Farm in Quincy, Washington. The grains are mashed and distilled at the Woodinville distillery, then, uniquely, the young spirit is trucked across the Cascade Mountains to Central Washington. Here, dramatic seasonal temperature swings accelerate barrel aging, drawing out complex flavors from new, heavily charred American oak. The barrel wood is open-air seasoned for 18 months—exposed to the region's rain, wind, sun, and snow—which softens harsh tannins and enriches the final spirit.
