American Whiskey

America’s ‘native spirit’ has grown far beyond bourbon. In our American Whiskey collection you’ll find Kentucky icons that wrote the rulebook, gritty craft distillers turning heirloom corn and rye into liquid history, and a handful of outliers — think mesquite‑smoked malt from Arizona or straight wheat whiskey from the windswept plains. What unites them is the same frontier insistence on flavour first and regulation second: charred new oak, at least 51 % of a named grain, and time to breathe in that sweet Southern air.

We bring these bottles into Australia because they belong in the same conversation as single malt and Japanese blends. A spicy barrel‑proof rye from Kentucky lifts a Manhattan at Casa de Vinos Lounge every Friday night, while a honeyed Tennessee sour‑mash makes the perfect welcome dram at our quarterly Whisky Abbey festival (tickets and line‑up at whiskyabbey.au). If you’re in trade, our wholesale@casadevinos.com.au team can slot heritage and small‑batch American SKUs into your back‑bar with reliable supply.

Flavour map, not state map. We file our American whiskies the way bartenders taste them: sweet nutmeg‑rich bourbon; peppery, herbaceous rye; soft wheat; roasted single malt; and experimental releases that blur the lines. The profiles dance from sticky pecan pie to burnt marshmallow to tangy BBQ smoke. Every bottle is bottled in bond, barrel‑strength, or at least straight and 100 % genuine — no ‘Tennessee flavouring’ shortcuts here.

Whether you’re chasing Pappy prestige, a dependable house‑pour bourbon for an Old Fashioned, or that obscure Colorado single malt your mate mentioned on a podcast, you’ll find it on this shelf or at the Lounge tasting bar (casadevinoslounge.com.au). Corporate groups can even build an American Whiskey flight with our events team — email sales@casadevinos.com.au. One sip, and you’ll see why this category is the fastest‑growing segment at Casa de Vinos.
