Both DoMa’s Bourbon and Rye Whiskeys are made with non-GMO grains. They are made with non-GMO white corn and malted barley from Riverbend Malt in Asheville, North Carolina. The rye which is used as a secondary grain in the bourbon, and the main ingredient in the rye is the Wren’s Abruzzi Rye.

DoMa’s Bourbon Whiskey is matured in new, white American oak barrels. It was bottled at a potent 90-proof and carries candied fruits, herbal mint, vanilla, and caramel aromas. The palate contains notes of orchard fruits, honey, and dried flowers. The finish is dry and warm and leaves you craving more.

DoMa’s Rye Whiskey is a warming 100-proof. According to the distillery, it begins with a nose of leather, chocolate, tobacco, and herbal, spicy rye. Sipping it reveals flavors like milk and dark chocolate, coffee, cashews, and peppery, spicy rye. The finish is creamy, lingering, and lightly spicy.

“This whiskey release is the culmination of five years of passion, dedication, and craftsmanship – a truly meticulous journey,” Seth Watson, DoMA Founder and CEO, said in a press release. “I wanted to create a whiskey that showcases what a great American bourbon looks like to me. Our team took the time and care to create a Bourbon Whiskey and Rye Whiskey that embodies the art of the spirit and brings people together through a new experience.”

I’ve been writing about alcohol for almost twenty years. The first time I visited a distillery (likely in Kentucky or Tennessee, although I can’t remember), one of the first things that was explained to me when visiting the barrelhouse was the idea of the angel’s share.
