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 https://www.bountyhunterwine.com/.  We recommend you seek out this bourbon, which stands out on any shelf and will stand out on your bar.   We would appreciate you giving us a 5 star rating on your podcast app and please leave us a written review.
