No Corn. No Compromise. Just Full-Throttle Flavor.
Like Evel himself—brazen, built different, and born to fly—Big Red Rye roars out of the gate with a flavor profile that doesn’t flinch. The bottle stands proud with the 1898 Land Run charging across its glass—an homage to bold moves and wild beginnings.
On the nose, it’s all green fire: sharp rye spice, fresh dill, and the grassy pop of a field mid-sprint. Then comes a twist—warm bakery rye bread, evergreens, and even a smoky whisper of Reuben sandwich nostalgia. Spearmint slides in like Evel’s white cape in the wind—unexpected and perfectly placed.
The palate hits like a wheelie off the ramp—sweet mint, raw honey, and rustic tobacco ride hard up front. Rye grain and caraway slam the throttle, backed by molasses cookies, black pepper, peppermint, and baking spice chaos. Just when you think it's landed, a soft maple whisper leans in for one more kiss before takeoff.
The finish lingers like the sound of a crowd after the stunt—molasses, spice, and creamy mint hold the line. Barley smooths it out with a honeyed hush, while clove and faint pipe smoke fade like tire tracks in the dusk.
No corn to cushion. No gimmicks. Just guts.
Big Red Rye is what happens when you let the rye lead and malted barley finish and never touch the brakes. It’s the bottle that belongs next to a smoked brisket, on a tailgate, or poured slow before launching into the unknown.
Bold. Balanced. Built to jump the line.
Shipping & Pricing Disclaimer - Shipping alcohol is expensive — and here’s why. Carriers add nearly $10 in special handling and compliance fees to each alcohol shipment, no matter how many bottles are inside. That means your per-bottle shipping cost decreases when you buy more bottles in a single order.
Our whiskies will also be available in select retail stores beginning January 31, 2026. Please note that retail stores set their own prices, which may be higher than our online prices.
