Item Description
Dry Diggings and Amador Distillery, El Dorado Hills
Fine Whiskeys and Bourbon
Dry Diggings Distillery and Amador Distillery were both founded in 2008. In 2015, Dry acquired Amador.
You’ll receive one bottle each of Bodie 5 Dog White California Whiskey, Amador Engine 49 Rye Whiskey, Bodie Aged Single Malt Whiskey, Amador Engine 49 Bourbon, 31 n 50 Bourbon Barrel #3 and Rubicon Whiskey Barrel #3.
Bodie 5 Dog California White Whiskey is a new frontier for American Whiskey. This product is a blend of production techniques that allow the spirit to ferment and distill in a way that belies its true grain roots.
Amador Engine 49 Straight Rye Whiskey is a unique rye whiskey that is nothing but 100% rye on the mash bill. Nothing else is added. Other than a small amount of proofing water, all you get is a true rye flavor.
The Bodie Aged Single Malt Whiskey is a light grain whiskey that gives a complex blend of the grain, yeast and barrel. There is no smoke or peat hanging over the taste. Very different than a bourbon or rye, and also very different from a traditional Scotch.
The Amador Engine 49 80-proof Bourbon is a very smooth and easy to drink bourbon, that also provides a deep flavor profile.
With the 31 n 50 Bourbon Barrel #3, by using typical Kentucky/Tennessee/Indiana grains, yeast, still and barrels the other variables to final taste and nose were eliminated. 31n50 shows the impact of high heat - low heat temperatures cycles and a distinct lack of humidity most of the year. The aging process in the warehouse pushes the distillate into the wood in greater depth and gives a distinct rich sweet flavor.
With Rubicon Rye Whiskey Barrel #3, Dry Diggings Distillery has taken Rye Whiskey back to an Early American Style. This mashbill is the same as Engine 49 rye, but the flavor is completely different. This is due to a second barrel which gives the whiskey another year of time, but also a very high end barrel made by Radoux Tonnellerie. These barrels are extremely expensive and hand coopered of high elevation American oak staves. All hand toasted and then naturally fired to a number 3 deep char. The result is a unique taste, mouth feel and long lasting flavor.
