American Whiskey

Buy American Whiskey Online – Bourbon, Rye, Tennessee & Single Malt

American whiskey is the most diverse whiskey category in the world — spanning sweet wheated bourbons, spicy high-rye mashbills, charcoal-filtered Tennessee whiskey, bold straight ryes, and the newly federally recognized American Single Malt. Wooden Cork ships the full spectrum nationwide with adult-signature delivery in 1–7 days.

Bourbon

Bourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn, aged in new charred oak containers, and distilled to no more than 160 proof. Kentucky produces the vast majority, anchored by the Buffalo Trace Distillery portfolio — Blanton's, Eagle Rare, Weller, Pappy Van Winkle, and the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. Beyond Buffalo Trace, standouts include Four Roses, Maker's Mark, Knob Creek, Elijah Craig, and Woodford Reserve.

Rye Whiskey

Rye whiskey must contain at least 51% rye in the mashbill, producing a spicier, drier character than bourbon. WhistlePig is the premium standard-bearer. High West from Utah produces some of the most interesting rye blends in America. Barrell Craft Spirits releases cask-strength ryes finished in unique barrels that push the boundaries of the style.

Tennessee Whiskey

Tennessee whiskey is bourbon filtered through sugar maple charcoal before aging — the Lincoln County Process — which softens the spirit and imparts subtle sweetness. Jack Daniel's is the category's defining brand. Uncle Nearest honors Nathan "Nearest" Green with a premium Tennessee whiskey lineup that has earned critical acclaim since launching in 2017.

American Single Malt

American Single Malt is the newest federally recognized American whiskey category — distilled at a single distillery from 100% malted barley, aged in American oak. Craft distilleries from coast to coast are producing expressions that blend Scottish single malt traditions with American oak influence.

Moonshine & Unaged American Whiskey

Moonshine — unaged or minimally aged corn whiskey — connects to American whiskey's roots in Appalachian craft distilling. Modern commercial moonshine from producers like Ole Smoky and Tim Smith's Climax offers the white dog experience in legal, well-crafted form.
