WHISKEY AMERICAN
J. RIEGER & CO USA, MISSOURI J Rieger & Co pays tribute our historic brand through resurrecting the use of adding Sherry to American Whiskey, a common practice known as “rectification” in the late 1800s, but that was lost after Prohibition. Our goal is to showcase the extraordinary quality of American Whiskey in our blend, while introducing a classic element in the production process that harkens back to the 1880s. As the first producer to revitalize the practice of adding Sherry into whiskey, we’ve created a new classification of American Whiskey, Kansas City Style. Rieger’s Kansas City Whiskey 92PF / 375ML / 750ML Kansas City Whiskey is a blend of Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Light Corn Whiskey, and Straight Rye Whiskey, all aged at least 4 years, as well as a small amount of 15-year-old Oloroso Sherry from the Williams & Humbert Bodega in Jerez. Kansas City Whiskey is well balanced, smooth, and slightly sweet. JAMES E.

Over 25 years ago, founder Steve McCarthy returned from a trip to Ireland determined to make his own single malt.
