Detailed Description
They farm their own wheat, rye, and barley, while sourcing corn from a cousin in Hermiston, Oregon. The berries for cordials are all from the Willamette Valley except for the huckleberries, which are sourced from coastal regions of the state. Even the rustic artwork on the labels is done by a neighbor, Dan Moncrief, a Joseph resident, taxidermist, and artist, who makes sure the ram on the two-year bottle of rye has smaller horns than the one on the five-year bottle in order to reflect the contents’ age.
Stein Distillery 2 Year Old Straight Blended Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: Dried cherries, wet sawdust, and a handful of new coins. But mostly bourbon.
Palate: Oak, leather, heavily peppered creamed corn. It starts sweet and finishes dry. Despite relatively low alcohol content and a thin mouthfeel.
Finish: It leaves a savory tingle across the tongue.
