Crafted for Cocktails: Flavors of Vanilla, Cherries, and Spice

Templeton Straight Rye Whiskey is a non-chill filtered, full-bodied spirit with an amber hue and aromas of vanilla, pineapple, toasted oak, and spice. On the palate, it offers a mix of ripe cherries, dark chocolate, subtle honey, and classic rye spices, aimed at providing a complex tasting experience. The whiskey’s finish lingers with notes of cinnamon, black pepper, and caramelized oak. Bottled at the Templeton Distillery in Iowa from the distillery’s sourced stocks of whiskey, the whiskey is said to be the perfect addition to any home bar or cocktail menu.

As we continue to evolve from an independent bottler to a distiller, our robust innovation pipeline will ensure we continue to meet the evolving tastes of our consumers. This bold and complex expression reflects our dedication to crafting full-flavored, high quality rye whiskey, inspired by our storied history in rye whiskey making and fit for today’s whiskey lover. We’re thrilled to invite both longtime fans and newcomers to experience this newest expression of Templeton.
