If you don’t know about Frey Ranch Distillery, now is a good time to get on the bandwagon. The Nevada-based farm-to-glass distillery is celebrating ten years of award-winning distillation and five generations of farming by launching a new limited-edition whiskey.

It’s called Harvester Series: 10th Anniversary Edition, and it’s already won numerous awards, including a Gold Medal at the 2025 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. The whiskey is made with all five grains grown on-site at the farm: non-GMO dent corn, winter wheat, winter rye, barley, and oats. This American whiskey is a blend of the team’s favorite single barrels, featuring more than 100 barrels and fourteen different mash bills.

This limited-edition expression features whiskey as old as seven and a half years and is bottled at a potent 121.4-proof. According to Frey Ranch, the result is an epic whiskey that begins with a nose of butterscotch, oatmeal raisins cookies, and cinnamon graham crackers. Sipping it reveals notes of confectionary sugar, custard, and marshmallow. The finish combines candied nuts, milk chocolate, and pinenuts.

“As farmers first and foremost, the Harvester Series is a culmination of more than 170 years of growing the highest quality grains on our family farms in Northern Nevada. We’re excited to launch this new series starting with our Anniversary Edition – or what we are affectionately referring to as First Harvest, as this is the first Harvester release,” Co-Founder and Whiskey Farmer Colby Frey says.

“Collaborating with Nancy (Fraley) on our anniversary liquid was honestly a career highlight. She brings so much knowledge and passion and  really pushed us in an interesting direction.”

In 2000, a liquor retailer named Gordon Jackson won a barrel of 15-year-old bourbon from Julian Van Winkle (yes, that Van Winkle family) and decided to bottle and sell it under the name "Dirty Helen" Cromwell Bourbon. It was such a hit that it's being rereleased twenty-five years later by Old Commonwealth Distillery.

For those unaware, Helen Cromwell was born in 1886. She was a sex worker, madam, and owner of the infamous Sunflower Inn located in Milwaukee in the 20s and 40s, a bar that only served whiskey and nothing else. She was also known for her colorful, crude language, earning her the nickname "Dirty Helen".
