Trust us: Making your way through the incredible world of American craft whiskey is a trip! So prepare to be whiskey -d away by our all-inclusive, cross-country flight â€" a one-way ticket to total obsession. First stop: the wheat fields of Washington. Dry Fly Distilling cranks out one of our favorite â€afarm-to-bottle†styles made with winter wheat grown on nearby farms. America's abundant grain adds a subtle soft flavor that rides shotgun with a hint of toffee from barrel aging. Next stop: Virginian wine country. Catoctin Creek is the sole distillery in a land full of vineyards, but they maximize on the same good sunshine to power 85% of their operations with solar panels. This 100% rye whiskey â€" all the more rare since it†s 100% organic, too â€" is packed with smooth black pepper spice and hints of banana from just about two years in barrels. Final destination: the lush forests of Kentucky. Corsair Artisan Distillery starts their no-punches-pulled, definitive answer to smoky Scotch with three batches of locally sourced malted barley. Each gets a different smoke â€" cherrywood, peat or beechwood. It†s all pot-distilled together and aged in new American oak to mellow out the fire, with classic big barrel notes of wood and rich vanilla. Sip all three solo â€" neat, on the rocks, whatever you fancy â€" to experience each taste of place, then try mixing into your favorite Old Fashioned or whiskey sour recipes.
