Your ‘Craft’ Rye Whiskey Is Probably From a Factory Distillery in Indiana - Tiki Drinks and Food

If different labels market a quality expression aged from that bulk distillate I am good with that. Having said that, If Bulleit, Templeton, Willet, High West and whoever else might be sourcing their product from the Indiana plant all bottle an expression of generally the same age, I will likely opt for the cheapest one on the shelf knowing that they all have identical grain bills and probably were aged in the same warehouses, even though there are probably slight differences in blending and bottling across the brands that make them all a bit different.
