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.

Frey Ranch Harvester Series: 10th Anniversary Edition

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.”

How a winemaker makes vermouth: Building a new American tradition
Making a grape-based spirit with a sense of place
Vemouth in glasses

Lately, we've seen the rise of lesser-known liqueurs in bar menus and indigenous grape varieties make bigger splashes on wine lists. Agave spirits and their hybrids continue to surge while the era of the high-octane IPA might be coming to an end. Vermouth, or a highly aromatic style of fortified wine, might be the next rising star in the American beverage landscape.

Vermouth, of course, is quite old. The familiar modern incarnation we know so well was first born in the late 18th century in Italy. Since then, it's become especially big in Europe, while also finding a solid footing in American mixology. Given a growing number of domestic makers — not to mention the revival of more moderate cocktails and drinks in general — vermouth seems poised for a breakout here in the States.
