Herman Marshall Texas Rye Whiskey

Detailed Description
The founders had an accidental meeting about 16 years ago at a Starbucks and began building a friendship. After a few years, their weekly discussions turned to whiskey and, as they say, the rest is history. Herman has responsibility for everything inside the bottle and Marshall has responsibility for everything outside the bottle. Their driving desire is to produce excellent whiskey in a pre-Prohibition style, something to set the Texas standard. Dallas Distilleries uses local grain when they can to produce the finest grain to glass experience possible. Herman – Marshall Texas Rye Whiskey is aged for at least 4 years in charred, new 53 gallon American white oak barrels and then bottled at 92 proof. The mashbill is an interesting 77% rye and 23% malted barley, no corn.

Distillery Information
Dallas County’s First Distillery Since Prohibition. Started in a coffee shop, when Herman Beckley and Marshall Louis discovered their mutual interest in whiskey. Coffee chats became inspired ideas and friendly challenges. New friends and partners in all things whiskey, they researched bourbon recipes from the 1800s, tweaking for a contemporary palate and to suit their own tastes. The duo was soon experimenting with their first batches and in 2012, arrived at market with their award-winning bourbon recipe driven by their own unique strain of yeast for its fermentation.
