J.Rieger & Co. Kansas City Whiskey
Kansas City, Missouri
Discover the revitalization of a family-owned distillery with roots back to 1887, key to the early development of Kansas City, now led by a team of future-focused distillers, including the founder’s great great great grandson.
The first producer to revitalize the historic practice of adding Sherry into whiskey created a new classification of American Whiskey: Kansas City Style. It’s a proprietary blend of Straight Rye, Light Corn Whiskey and Straight Bourbon, aged separately, with 15-year-old Oloroso Sherry from the William & Humbert Bodega, from one of the most revered wineries in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain’s legendary sherry producing region.

Corn, barley, malt up front. Caramel and sherry come on w the flavor lasting after swallowing. Stays with you up to half an hour. Could easily replace Woodford as my go-to whiskey. Remains to be seen whether it works as a Manhattan.
