Dierks Bentley’s Vision Behind ROW 94
Bentley, inspired by his love for whiskey, spent years researching and tasting before crafting ROW 94. He chose the name as a tribute to his 1994 move to Nashville and his journey on Music Row. The whiskey is aged for 4 years and bottled at 94 proof, a nod to Bentley’s preference for a robust whiskey with a satisfying bite.
“ROW 94 is a serious whiskey that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and I’m glad we finally get to share it,” Bentley says.
Crafting ROW 94 at Green River Distilling Co.
Green River Distilling Co., the 10th oldest licensed distillery in Kentucky, uses premium ingredients to craft ROW 94. With a mashbill of 70% Kentucky-grown corn, 21% rye, and 9% malted barley, the whiskey is aged in new White Oak barrels charred to a level 4, adding depth and complexity. Expect flavors of vanilla, toffee, green apple, honey, and a hint of tobacco.
“Dierks’ passion for doing things the right way was evident from the start,” says Mark Erwin, CEO of Bardstown Bourbon Company and Green River. “We’re thrilled to partner with him on this exceptional whiskey.”
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Vanilla and toffee with subtle green apple
- Palate: Balanced with rich honey and a touch of tobacco
- Finish: Smooth, with hints of oak and baking spices
