The Story

Middle West Rye Whiskey is crafted by Middle West Spirits in Columbus, Ohio, using a distinctive combination of pumpernickel rye and Ohio soft red winter wheat that gives the whiskey a creamy texture alongside its characteristic spice. This unusual grain blend sets Middle West apart from more traditional rye mash bills, resulting in a whiskey with a softer, rounder mouthfeel than many high-proof, aggressively spiced ryes. Expect a nose of warm bread, light spice, and honey sweetness, while the palate delivers a creamy, slightly spiced profile balancing peppery rye character against the wheat's natural smoothness, finishing gentle and well-rounded.

The Craft

This rye's creamy, approachable character makes it a great sipping whiskey, whether enjoyed neat or on the rocks, and it also works nicely in a whiskey sour or a milder rye Old Fashioned. Pair it with fresh baked bread, roasted chicken, or mild cheeses to complement its softer profile.

The Detail

Middle West Spirits has earned recognition as one of Ohio's leading craft distilleries, and this rye showcases their thoughtful approach to grain selection. Shop Middle West Rye Whiskey online at Habits Bottle Shop and try this creamy, distinctive Ohio rye.

On The Rocks

A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.

Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
