Self-proclaimed "Whiskey
Farmers", Colby Frey and Ashley Frey recently introduced their
first bourbon and have staked their claim in the craft bourbon
space. Frey Ranch Distillery is a true ground-to-glass
“whiskey farm” and distillery located in Northern Nevada’s Lake
Tahoe Watershed, where the Frey family has been farming since 1854.
The 1,500-acre Frey Ranch is owned and operated by fifth-generation
farmer Colby Frey and his wife Ashley, who founded a distillery on
the property in 2006 and began aging whiskies onsite in a
hand-built barrel warehouse in 2014.
This past December,
Frey Ranch released its first Straight Bourbon Whiskey ($49.99) in
Nevada. This 90-proof bourbon is aged for a minimum of four years
and boasts a 4 Grain mash bill of non-GMO corn, winter cereal rye,
winter wheat, and two-row malted barley, 100% of which is grown
onsite at Frey Ranch. This 4 year old, 4 grain bourbon is complex
with a long finish, thanks to the varied climate and broad
temperature swings in Northern Nevada.
Frey Ranch is looking
to expand their market share and will be available in California
soon. Also, it will be available this summer, along with
their Rye Whiskey, through online retailers, such as

We recommend you seek out this bourbon, which stands out on any
shelf and will stand out on your bar.
