Kentucky-Grown Rye Captures Log Still’s Farm-to-Bottle Tradition

Log Still Distillery is proud to announce the launch of Monk’s Road Rye Whiskey, the newest addition to its portfolio, showcasing the distillery’s dedication to Kentucky’s agricultural heritage. Crafted from Kentucky Heritage-grown rye, cultivated on the distillery’s own farmland, Monk’s Road Rye strikes a balance between bold, spicy notes and a smooth, distinctive finish. Already recognized with a Bronze medal at the 2024 International Wine & Spirit Competition, Monk’s Road Rye will be available in multiple states this fall, priced at $46.99.

Monk’s Road Rye is a product born from the soil, meticulously crafted with rye cultivated around Log Still’s historic campus farmland. This close relationship with the land ensures deep care and precision in every bottle, capturing the essence of Kentucky’s fertile fields. The rye imparts a bold spice and warmth, balanced by softer undertones of caramel and a hint of oak. It’s a whiskey that brings the story of Kentucky agriculture straight to your glass.

“Monk’s Road Rye is more than just a whiskey – it’s a reflection of the land we work and the people who make it all possible,” said Wally Dant, President and Distiller at Log Still Distillery. “We’re proud to grow the very rye that goes into every bottle right here on our campus, and we can’t wait for folks to experience the authentic Kentucky character it offers.”
