Grain Whisky

Whisky from Grains!

While there are strict regulations for the grains used in malt whisky, bourbon whiskey, rye whiskey, and Irish whiskey, any grain can be used in the production of grain whisky. Grain whisky is the main component of the best-selling type of whisky in the world: blended whisky. Unfortunately, single grain whiskies are very rarely available, and we are pleased to offer you whiskies from this category in our online spirits shop.

Early Times Kentucky Whisky 1,0L 40%

Early Times Kentucky Whiskey 1.0L 40% Early Times was founded in 1860, when much of America was still untouched land. The name "Early Times" was chosen as a nod to the old-fashioned methods of whiskey production, which involved mashing grain in small vats and distilling the whiskey in copper stills over an open fire. Today, Early Times' distillation process has evolved and become more sophisticated, but it still delivers the distinctive, smooth taste reminiscent of the original American whiskey experience. Early Times Kentucky Whiskey 1.0L 40% is made with a mash that is 79% corn, 11% rye and 10% malted barley. This whisky then matures for three years in new charred oak barrels and in used barrels from the cooperage.

Suntory Whisky The Chita 0,7L 43%

Suntory Whisky The Chita 0.7L 43% The little exotic Almost everyone knows that a good whisky comes from Scotland or Ireland. However, it is often single malt whisky and not the rarer single grain. The exotic Suntory The Chita is one of the few Japanese single grain whiskies that can easily keep up with the main whiskey producers. Suntory has established itself as an independent bottler for over 100 years and enjoys a professional and high-quality reputation. Fascinating combination The unmalted grain used for the single grain whisky comes from the region around Chita. The distillery of the same name, which has only existed since the 1970s, is located in the port of Nagoya. Chita is a pure grain distillery. Grains are produced here and stored separately for some time in white oak barrels, Spanish oak barrels and old port wine barrels, thus producing the blended Suntory The Chita. This spirit is fascinating on the one hand because of the combination of different types of maturation and on the other hand because of its rare occurrence on the German spirits market. Originally the whisky was only intended for the local and not the European market. If you take a closer look In terms of aroma, the Suntory The Chita is predominantly fruity. It is very charming and has an inviting freshness. Melons and citrus fruits marry with a sweet undertone of fine honey. Cornflakes and cereals are the typical flavor carriers for a single grain whisky and set the tone for an unmistakable taste. In the glass the whisky is golden brown and slightly oily. In the mouth the Suntory whisky unfolds a wide range of aromas such as vanilla, honey and muffins. A floral hint passes through the taste buds, accompanied by a nuance of fresh fruit. The finish reveals the strong side of the complex distillate. It is also very long-lasting and intense. Suntory The Chita is best enjoyed neat or on ice. In a cocktail, this rarity would almost be wasted.

Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey 0,7L 46%

Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey 0.7L 46% History and production of Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey: In the north of the US state of Tennessee, more precisely in the city of Nashville, the two hobby brewers Darek Bell and Andrew Webber fulfilled a long-held dream in 2010 by opening the Corsair Distillery. Originally, the two young entrepreneurs brewed various craft beers in Darek's garage in their free time, but their passion for whiskey ultimately led to joint plans to set up their own distillery. In addition to the standard bottlings available all year round, such as gin, rye whiskey or spiced rum, the Corsair Distillery also creates numerous experimental special editions that impress with innovative ingredients and exceptional taste. The Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey is an absolute rarity. This flavoured whiskey was created based on the extremely popular pumpkin ale in the USA, a beer variation for which pumpkin flesh is at the top of the ingredients list and which is drunk in large quantities on Halloween and Thanksgiving. A raw spirit made from barley malt and wheat was distilled again and the rising vapors were passed through various botanicals. In addition to pumpkin, cloves, ginger and allspice, fresh cinnamon sticks also provide a lush bouquet. Subsequent storage in former rye whiskey barrels made of American white oak rounds off the complex aromatic composition with spicy oak and rye notes. Taste of the Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey: On the nose, the Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey shows lush aromas of baked pumpkin, mild ginger, cinnamon, cloves and dark chocolate. In the background there are sweet malt, vanilla, a hint of blossom honey and spicy rye bread. The aromas are extremely complex and varied, but without lacking in harmony. On the contrary, the interplay of the most diverse aromas is well integrated and well balanced. On the tongue, the Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey is very mild and soft. With sweet notes of vanilla, marshmallows, honey and caramel, its basic taste is more reminiscent of a gentle bourbon whiskey. The emerging notes of pumpkin pie, butter crumbles, cloves, allspice and cinnamon add a variety of other flavor nuances to the Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey. A light oak and rye spice in the background rounds off the harmonious flavor profile and also ensures a long-lasting finish. Overall, the Corsair Old Punk Pumpkin and Spice Whiskey is an exciting product that is probably unique on the market in this form. Despite its unusual flavor composition, it is still first and foremost a well-made, honest whiskey, complemented by traditional American flavors.

Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey 0,5L 58,5%

Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey 0.5L 58.5% History and production of the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey: The Journeyman Distillery was founded in 2011 by Bill Welten in the tranquil town of Three Oaks, in the US federal state of Michigan. Until a few years ago, the friendly master distiller worked in the family bank. This was sold and Welter looked for a new challenge. He traveled the world and lived in Scotland for a few years, where he fell in love with single malt whisky. The desire to distill his own whisky quickly grew in him. By a lucky coincidence he met Greg Ramsay. He runs his own distillery in Tasmania, Australia, where Welter was able to work for a few weeks. Bill Welter visited many more distilleries, mostly in the USA, and gained important experiences and impressions from every single one. Finally, the time had come for him to look for a suitable place for his stills. He finally found one in Three Oaks. The EK Warren featherbone factory, a former corset factory, was the perfect place for Welter to set up his own distillery. After an extensive renovation phase, production of his first-class organic spirits finally started in 2011. In addition to bourbon, wheat and rye whiskey, the craft distillery also produces various gin variations, vodka, rum and limited specialties. One specialty is certainly the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey, which is made from 100% organically grown wheat. Whiskey made from wheat is quite rare, as the production process is very complex and can only be managed with a lot of experience and skill. The result is extremely mild and soft, with intense notes of vanilla and caramel. Storage in fresh American white oak barrels also contributes to the gentle taste of the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey. The Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey is bottled undiluted, i.e. at cask strength, with a strong 58.3% alcohol by volume and, of course, without the addition of coloring. Taste of the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey: On the nose, the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey has rich notes of vanilla, caramel, oranges, coconuts and baked apples. In the background, there are hints of raisins, apricots and spicy oak. You definitely can't tell how strong the alcohol is when you smell the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey. Rather, the aromas appear very delicate and harmonious, with no trace of alcoholic spiciness. The full power of the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey is revealed in the taste. The high alcohol content ensures a powerful start. Notes of vanilla, toffees, marshmallows and biscuits are present. There are also spicy oak, black pepper and cinnamon. The Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey can easily tolerate the addition of water. This opens up the bouquet and light fruit aromas emerge. On the tongue, the Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey is then significantly milder and there is a gentle creaminess. The finish is long and surprisingly spicy. The Journeyman Corsets, Whips & Whiskey is an all-round successful product, which is unlikely to be found anywhere else. Perfect for pure enjoyment after adding water, it also plays a leading role in cocktails and mixed drinks.

Journeyman W.R. White Whiskey 0,5L 45%

Journeyman WR White Whiskey 0.5L 45% History and production of Journeyman WR White Whiskey: The Journeyman Distillery, founded in 2011 by Bill Welter in the US state of Michigan, just 100 km from Chicago, has built up a veritable reputation in the craft scene over the last four years. The spirits produced there in small quantities are all organically certified and impress with their exceptional taste and first-class quality. In addition to the standard bottlings, which include bourbon and rye whiskey as well as gin, limited editions are regularly presented, which often have a historical reference to the founder or the historic factory hall in which the distillery was built. Bill Welter dedicated the Journeyman WR White Whiskey to his father and grandfather as well as to all the journeymen who, after their examination, embark on a multi-year journey in order to expand their technical and operational knowledge and improve their own skills. The W and R in the name of the Journeyman WR White Whiskey do not only come from the first names of his father and grandfather, but also stand for "white rye", i.e. unaged rye whiskey. Because that's what this exceptional product is all about. The Journeyman WR White Whiskey is made from the same grain mash that is used for the Journeyman Last Feather Rye Whiskey, which is also available here in the shop. This consists mainly of organic rye, which is supplemented by organically grown wheat and a little barley. The difference to its big brother lies in the subsequent storage. In the case of the Journeyman WR White Whiskey, this is less than 24 hours. The barrels made of American white oak are freshly burned out and during this time hardly give off any color or barrel aromas and only provide a slight rounding of the taste. Filled in stylishly designed bottles sealed with black wax, the Journeyman WR White Whiskey presents the natural, fresh taste of an unaged rye brandy. Taste of the Journeyman WR White Whiskey: On the nose, the Journeyman WR White Whiskey is extremely fruity and lively. Bananas, apples, grapefruits and pears form a wonderfully fresh bouquet that is reminiscent of fruit salad. Accompanied by the unadulterated aromas of rye and wheat, notes of licorice and ginger can be seen in the background. The taste of the Journeyman WR White Whiskey is clearly dominated by rye. The intense spiciness is balanced by a certain malt sweetness, which creates a surprisingly soft, creamy mouthfeel without alcoholic sharpness. In addition, there are hints of baked apples, pears, caramel, toffee and mint. It is really amazing what variety of tastes and aromas can emerge in an unaged grain spirit. Intense fruitiness, malt sweetness but also herbal and spicy notes form a wonderful unity with a lot of harmony, without barrel aromas being able to cover up these light, almost delicate notes. Together with the creamy texture and the long, oily finish, the Journeyman WR White Whiskey is an all-round successful product that receives our unreserved recommendation.

Teeling Single Grain Whiskey, 0,7L 46%

Teeling Single Grain Whiskey, 0.7L 46% History and production of Teeling Single Grain: Teeling - no other name is so closely linked to Irish whiskey history. Walter Teeling founded a small distillery in Dublin as early as 1782. This was to lay the foundation for the worldwide success of Irish whiskey and to this day the name Teeling is inseparably linked with whiskey production in Ireland. Teeling and its outstanding distillate sparked a real boom, which led to a large number of new establishments; there were more than 30 distilleries in Dublin alone. Due to unfortunate circumstances and dubious decisions (not least due to Prohibition in the USA), Irish whiskey began to lead a downright shadowy existence from the second half of the 20th century. The last distillery in Dublin was subsequently to close its doors in 1976... until the new Teeling Whiskey Distillery saw the light of day in 2015. The historic name should immediately make the claim clear: first-class quality, exceptional taste, passion and tradition should make Irish whiskey a successful global player again. Even if the conditions for this have been created, it is undoubtedly a difficult legacy to inherit. For this purpose, a state-of-the-art distillery was built in the center of Dublin. In order to do justice to the traditional production method of triple distillation, there are a total of three copper pot stills that ensure a mild, gentle taste. As the Teeling Distillery only started distilling in 2015, no whiskey with the prescribed minimum storage time can of course be brought onto the market at this point in time. To bridge the waiting time, exclusive whiskeys from the Irish Cooley distillery, which was founded by John Teeling in 1987, are regularly released. The Teeling Single Grain presented here belongs to a very rare whisky category. As the name suggests, it is a whiskey that is made from 100% unmalted barley. Distillation took place in the Cooley distillery's column still. The Teeling Single Grain was then matured in ex-bourbon barrels made from American white oak and then finished in Californian wine barrels that previously contained Cabernet Sauvignon. It is also particularly noteworthy that the Teeling Single Grain is bottled at a strong 46% alcohol by volume and is neither colored nor chill-filtered. Tasting the Teeling Single Grain: The Teeling Single Grain has a dark, reddish shimmering color. When nosing, it initially presents fruity aromas of raspberries, pears, apples and citrus fruits. Vanilla, herbs and spices emerge in the background. Overall, the aroma of the Teeling Single Grain is very light and delicate. This makes it very different from single malt whisky. The taste of the Teeling Single Grain is very strong and distinctly spicy. Notes of nutmeg, allspice and candied ginger are gradually complemented by fruity components such as grapes, raisins and red berries. The finish shows a solid tannin structure and full-bodied oak, reminiscent of high-quality cognac. The Teeling Single Grain is an extremely interesting whiskey that has a completely new play of tastes and aromas thanks to the use of unmalted barley.

The Girvan 28YO Patent Still Single Grain Scotch Whisky 0,7 L 42%

The Girvan 28YO Patent Still Single Grain Scotch Whisky 0.7 L 42% The Girvan Distillery It was in 1886/87 when William Grant, the founder of William Grant & Sons, opened his first small distillery. He had a vision back then: “to create the best dram in the valley” – In order to make his dream a reality, he invested a lot of hard work and effort in his company and quickly rose to become one of the most successful whisky producers of his time. The company’s flagship – the Glenfiddich Distillery – now stands on the site where Grant opened his first distillery. In addition to the Glenfiddich Distillery, the William Grant & Sons company also successfully operates other distilleries, such as the Girvan Distillery. This was built in 1963 under the supervision of Charles Gordon, the great-grandson of William Grant, and was considered the most modern distillery in the world at the time. The distillery was built because William Grant & Sons had begun to produce blends and had problems obtaining high-quality grain whiskies due to an internal dispute with supplier Distillers Company Ltd. (DCL). So it was decided to produce grain whisky themselves in the future and built the Girvan distillery. To this day, the Girvan distillery is considered the "most technically advanced distillery in Scotland" and has been expanded over the last 50 years to include four more ultra-modern, continuously operating stills. This includes a still installed in 1992 that enables "MPS distillation". This refers to distillation under different pressures, including vacuum, which enables the production of sweeter, fruitier, and purer whiskies. The Girvan Distillery is now world-famous for this type of high-quality grain whisky. The Girvan 28YO Patent Still Single Grain Scotch Whisky This 28-year-old single grain Scotch whisky from The Girvan is an absolute rarity in the world of Scotch whisky. Single grain whisky that has to be distilled in column stills is generally hard to come by and an absolute exception in this age class. This special bottling from the Girvan Distillery was stored in barrels made of American white oak, which bring a beautiful aroma of vanilla and oak to the whisky, but do not mask the whisky's own taste too much. This creates a highly complex whisky full of finesse with The Girvan 28YO Patent Still Single Grain Scotch Whisky. On the nose, the light golden The Girvan 28YO Patent Still Single Grain Scotch Whisky shows fine aromas of vanilla, toffee and apple. On the palate, notes of cinnamon, orange and chocolate are added, which can also be perceived in nuances in the long aftertaste. The Girvan 28YO Patent Still Single Grain Scotch Whisky is a more than exceptional whisky and a highlight for every whisky lover who thought they already knew everything on the market!

Cameron Brig Single Grain Scotch Whisky, 0,7 L, 40%

Cameron Brig Single Grain Scotch Whisky 0.7L 40% The former owner of the Cameronbridge distillery in the Lowlands was a cousin of Robert Stein, the inventor of the continuous distillation process. It is therefore not surprising that the Cameronbridge distillery quickly switched to this process and thus produced high-quality grain whisky.After producing both malt and grain whisky for several years, the distillery decided to concentrate its whisky production on grain whisky. This whisky is one of the few available of the rare single grain whiskies. It runs amber-gold into the glass and is reminiscent of freshly cut hay and caramel on the nose. On the palate there are clear notes of fruit, toffee and pepper. The aftertaste is relatively short, but makes you want the next sip!

Grain Whisky – Whisky from Barley and Other Grains

While a malt whisky must be made from malted barley, an Irish whiskey from malted and unmalted barley, an American straight bourbon whiskey from at least 51% corn, and a straight rye whiskey from at least 51% rye, any grain can be used for the production of grain whisky. Unlike malt whisky or Irish whiskey, which are both distilled in pot stills, grain whisky is continuously distilled in so-called coffey stills. Together with malt whisky, the lighter grain whisky forms the base for blended whisky, which can be a mix of up to 50 different malts and grains. Single grain whisky refers to grain whisky that comes from a single whisky distillery. The well-known Cameron Brig single grain whisky was for a long time the only single grain on the market and is still considered a flagship for the single grain whisky category.
