Details
Dry Land Distillers and Neolithic Brand are excited to announce the release of the world’s only 100% malted Emmer Wheat Whiskey!
Emmer is one of the oldest cultivated grains known to humanity, and Dry Land Distillers has crafted a rich, silky, and complex single grain whiskey from this extraordinary grain. This whiskey is a unique collaboration between the University of Wyoming, Dry Land Distillers, and Neolithic Brand as part of the Wyoming First Grains Project.
This is the only known barrel of 100% emmer whiskey in the world. Our research has found just one other partial emmer whiskey produced in recent history. This whiskey (technically a bourbon) was released by Weller more than 15 years ago and only included a small percentage of emmer in the mash bill. (If you can find a bottle, it will set you back more than $2,500.)
