Frequently asked

American Whiskey, answered

The questions shoppers search for most often about this category, answered plainly.

What is Tennessee whiskey?

Tennessee whiskey is a straight, bourbon-style whiskey produced in Tennessee. Its mash contains at least 51% corn, and it is aged in new charred oak barrels. Before aging, the unaged whiskey is steeped in or filtered through maple charcoal using the Lincoln County Process. Within American whiskey, its Tennessee origin and charcoal filtration distinguish it from other bourbon-style spirits.

What is the difference between bourbon and Tennessee whiskey?

The main differences are where they are made and how they are filtered. Bourbon can be produced anywhere in the United States, while Tennessee whiskey must be made in Tennessee. Both use a mash containing at least 51% corn and age in new charred oak containers, but Tennessee whiskey also undergoes sugar-maple charcoal filtration before aging.

What is the difference between Irish whiskey and American whiskey?

Irish whiskey is made in Ireland and typically emphasizes barley, while American whiskey includes corn-based bourbon and rye-based styles. Irish whiskey is commonly triple-distilled and often has a lighter, smoother character with fruity or bready notes. American bourbon tends to be sweeter, with caramel and vanilla notes, while American rye is known for a spicier character. These ingredients and distillation choices create noticeably different profiles.
