Welcome back to Whiskey Provisioner! Hosts Richard and So-Han (West China Tea) are joined by special guest CJ for an episode dedicated to the art of finished rye whiskeys.

CJ kicks things off by sharing a personal project and his "baby": a future Distillery Reserve Series (DRS) release from Still Austin. It's a 100% Brutto Rye finished in rare White Port barrels. So-Han pairs this 114-proof whiskey with a Sheng Puerh tea, leading to a discussion on how tea and whiskey interact.

The group then explores another unique bottle from Richard's collection: a Saints Alley Nobleman (an Iron Root Republic collaboration), which is a blend of Indiana and Texas purple corn rye finished in Hungarian Tokaji dessert wine barrels.


  • 🥃 Still Austin Artist (Future DRS): 100% Brutto Rye finished in White Port Barrels (114 Proof)

  • 🥃 Saints Alley Nobleman: A blend of MGP and Iron Root (purple corn) rye finished in Hungarian Tokaji barrels.

  • 🍵 Sheng Puerh Tea


Join the conversation as the group discusses:

  • The Whiskeys: What exactly are White Port and Hungarian Tokaji, and what flavors do they bring to a spicy rye?

  • The Process: Why is distilling 100% rye so challenging? (Hint: it involves "puking").

  • The History: Why is rye as a category so distinct from bourbon or wheat whiskey?

  • Tasting Notes: The crew finds everything from tangerine, front-end spice, and mint to chocolate oranges, vanilla, and salty butterscotch taffy.

  • Whiskey Origin Stories: CJ, Richard, and So-Han share their "Aha!" moments—the specific bottle or experience (from Laphroaig to Jameson) that made them fall in love with whiskey.

This is a must-watch for anyone who loves complex rye, unique barrel finishes, or just hearing passionate experts share their craft.

Cheers!
