Journeyman - Last Feather Rye - 45%
The Journeyman Distillery is ideally located in Three Oaks, near Chicago in Michigan, in the heart of the United States. Founded by enthusiasts, this craft distillery stands out for its commitment to quality and environmental respect. In 2000, Bill Welter graduated after four years of Division 1 Golf studies at Missouri State University. His curiosity led him to obtain a UK work visa and settle in St Andrews, Scotland, the global home of golf, where he worked at the Old Course Hotel. There he met Greg Ramsay, originally from Tasmania, with whom he shared a deep passion for Scottish whisky and forged a lasting friendship. Returning to the US in 2001, Bill joined the family business, while Greg also left Scotland to develop a unique project: transforming an old grain mill into a distillery in his hometown of Bothwell, Tasmania. In 2006, Bill visited Tasmania to discover Barnbougle and Greg's future distillery site. In 2010, his apprenticeship continued with master distiller Robert Birnecker in the Ravenswood neighborhood of Chicago, where he distilled the very first rye whiskey. Together, Bill and Chuck Welter acquired the central part of the old Featherbone factory, giving birth to the Journeyman Distillery, one of the few certified organic distilleries in the United States. All organic spirits produced by Journeyman are made without synthetic fertilizers, artificial pesticides, herbicides, antibiotics, growth hormones, or genetically modified organisms, thus ensuring an exceptional product respectful of nature and terroir.
Last Feather is an exceptional Rye Whiskey, made from a unique distillation of a carefully selected blend of organic rye (60%) and organic wheat (40%). This whiskey reflects the purity and authenticity of its ingredients, offering a rich and balanced tasting experience.
