Silver Springs Sweet Rye Whiskey

When J.W. Kelly arrived in Chattanooga in September 1866, he opened up a storefront to sell groceries and then expanded into whiskey distribution and opened a distillery. Deep Spring Distillery produced more than ten labels, all named after Tennessee history and locales, including Silver Spring; which was produced from 1900 - 1919. This Sweet Rye is accomplished with the addition of corn in the mash bill. The rye is housed in #3 charred oak barrels for a minimum of eight years; though most of our barrels are 9 years old. The end result is a sweet & spicy rye whiskey. Silver Springs Sweet Rye Whiskey is bottled at cask strength..
