American Whiskey is a broad, catch-all category. When it comes to bourbon, rye, and American single malt, there are laws that allow those whiskeys to be called what they are. But there’s so much more to the American whiskey scene than just bourbon, rye, and single malt. Below, I’m going to call out 50 great American whiskeys that do not fall into a major category like bourbon, rye, or single malt.

So what are these “American whiskeys,” exactly? For the most part, when a brand puts “American whiskey” on their label or a liquor store organizes a bottle onto an “American whiskey” shelf, they’re talking about a range of styles. This can be anything from a bourbon and rye blend to a wheat whiskey to corn whiskey to a blend of malt, bourbon, rye, wheat, and anything else really, as long as it’s made in the U.S.A.

For this list, I’ve compiled 50 American whiskeys that span everything from corn whiskeys to wheat whiskeys to straight malts, blends, and special mixes of styles. Long story short, there’s a ton of great whiskey out there that can’t be called “straight bourbon” or “straight rye” or “American single malt,” legally. That doesn’t mean that just because those whiskeys can’t carry that moniker they’re somehow inferior. There are great whiskeys that fall into this wide-reaching category and I’ve listed them below!

50. Michter’s US*1 Small Batch Unblended American Whiskey

ABV: 41.7%

Average Price: $48

The Whiskey:

Generally speaking, when you see a whiskey labeled as “blended whiskey” or just “bourbon” (instead of “straight bourbon”), it’s a blend of whiskey with neutral grain spirits to help keep costs down and profits high. This expression is labeled as “Unblended,” specifically because it’s made with whiskey only (no grain spirits added). The whiskey in these bottles was aged in barrels that are “whiskey-soaked.” Once the whiskey is just right, it’s then blended and small-batch bottled.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Orchard fruits, butterscotch candies, and vanilla cake greet you on the nose with a hint of wooden spice.

Palate: That fruit becomes more dried and almost salted on the palate while bourbon vanilla and mild caramel sweetness mingle with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Finish: The finish is pretty short and sweet with a red berry vibe next to some thin apple cider.

Bottom Line:

This is a great freezer whiskey. I keep a bottle in there to use for highballs and shots.

49. Mellow Corn Kentucky Straight Corn Whiskey Bottled In Bond

ABV: 50%

Average Price: $19

The Whiskey:

This whiskey has a hardcore fan base. The actual whiskey in the bottle is made from a mash bill of 81% corn and aged for at least four years (in a once-used bourbon barrel) before bottled-in-bond proofing to 100-proof and bottling.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: There’s a clear sense of corn husks and snickerdoodles on the nose with a hint of vanilla oak.

Palate: The palate is almost creamy (kind of like corn chowder) with a good dose of winter spice, rum raisin, and dry firewood.

Finish: The end leans into the snickerdoodle and rum raisin with a hint of funkiness and warmth.

Bottom Line:

Again, the fan base on this one is rabid. It’s good stuff, but certainly works better when you want to make a funky cocktail or take a bold shot with a beer back.

48. Tincup American Whiskey

ABV: 42%

Average Price: $37

The Whiskey:

This Colorado whiskey is a well-built blend. The whiskey in the bottle is made from Indiana straight bourbon and Colorado single malt. The barrels were batched high up in the Rocky Mountains and cut with glacial water from the mountains.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Orange and ginger drive the nose toward black peppercorns, a hint of leather, and malted vanilla.

Palate: Winter spice barks and orange lead to a rich cinnamon toast vibe next to caramel chews and Graham Crackers.

Finish: That malty cracker leads back to winter spice and burnt orange on the short finish.

Bottom Line:

This is a simple but nice whiskey. It’s made for mixing and building with so add it to a bold and wintery cocktail — think hot toddy.

47. Jack Daniel’s Triple Mash Blended Straight Whiskey

ABV: 50%

Average Price: $39

The Whiskey:

This expression, a “triple mash,” is comprised of 60% Jack’s Tennessee Rye, 20% Jack’s Tennessee Whiskey, and 20% of their new American malt. Once those bonded whiskeys are blended, they’re proofed down with that iconic cave water and bottled as-is.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose opens with a hint of wet malts that leads into a big note of fresh honey with a hint of honeycomb. There’s a touch of vanilla on the nose alongside wet deck planks, a little bit of sweetgrass, a hint of potting soil, and big and plump dates with a very distant note of cream soda.

Palate: The palate is all about those wet malts with plenty of vanilla backbone — think full pods you pay $30 each for.

Finish: The mid-palate is super soft with hints of nutmeg, buttery toffee covered in crushed almond, and that vitamin aisle again all leading to wet wicker, more of that vanilla, a whisper of applewood, and a super clear sense of rain-covered slate on the very backend.

Bottom Line:

This is a rich and fulfilling whiskey with great depth. I tend to lean toward mixing cocktails with this one but it can work as an on the rocks sipper in a pinch.

46. Proof And Wood Extraordinary American Blended Whiskey Vertigo

ABV: 52.5%

Average Price: $149

The Whiskey:

This blend is a mix of American rye, bourbon, and American light whiskey (aged in uncharred oak) from MGP of Indiana. The whiskeys were distilled in 1992, 2008, 2013, and 2015 and only yielded 1,000 bottles once batched.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Old cupboards full of winter spices mix with a sense of butterscotch candies and old vanilla pods on the nose.

Palate: There’s a mild sweetness on the palate that leans into dry grains or very dry sweetgrass next to a nutty chocolate vibe with a hint more of that musty spice from the nose.

Finish: The end has a moment of rye green herbaceousness that leans back into dry sweetgrass, butterscotch, and old Nutella with a winter spice underbelly.

Bottom Line:

This is a deep and dank whiskey that’s worth enjoying over some ice. Think of it as a good table whiskey (something for the every day).

45. Union Horse Distilling Rolling Standard Midwestern Four Grain Whiskey

ABV: 46%

Average Price: $39

The Whiskey:

This Kansas whiskey marries two American whiskey styles with four separate grains involved. It’s part American wheated bourbon and part American single malt. Locally sourced corn, wheat, rye, and barley are utilized in the mash. Then the booze is mellowed in used oak barrels from Missouri until it’s just right.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The grain-to-glass whiskey opens with classic notes of oaky vanilla, banana, cloves, and mild pepperiness.

Palate: On the palate, a maple syrup earthy sweetness cuts through along with a roasted almond fatty nature.

Finish: Dark pitted cherries come into play right before the rye kicks in with a hint of cinnamon on the mildly spicy finish.

Bottom Line:

This works well as a backyard pour on the weekend. Pour it over a lot of ice, mix it in some citrus-heavy cocktails, or use it for baking (in place of vanilla).

44. Five Trail Blended American Whiskey Barrel Proof Bold and Uncut

ABV: 59.5%

Average Price: $69

The Whiskey:

This new batch of whiskey from Coors’ new distillery and Bardstown Bourbon Company out in Kentucky blends six-year-old Colorado single malt with 12-year-old Kentucky bourbon. Once batched, those whiskeys go into the bottle with zero filtering or proofing.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose opens with a sense of old leather and cumin seeds next to salted caramel, pecan waffles, real maple syrup, and browned butter with a few woody spices thrown in alongside a date or prune.

Palate: The palate sweetens the spices with a hint of sour mulled wine next to caramel apples, Cherry Coke, gingerbread, and allspice-heavy Christmas cake with candied orange rinds.

Finish: The end leans into the gingerbread with a nice layer of marzipan and cedar over some mild ABV warmth.

Bottom Line:

This whiskey has really grown on me over the last year. It’s a mixer and on-the-rocks drinker for sure but does offer some nice depth.

43. Old Elk Straight Wheat Whiskey

ABV: 50%

Average Price: $65

The Whiskey:

This whiskey from Colorado uses 95% soft red winter wheat and 5% malted barley in its mash. That whiskey then ages for five years up in Colorado before batching, proofing, and bottling as-is.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: There’s a soft sense of floral — almost alpine — honey with a black cherry vibe next to vanilla sheet cake with a whiff of cinnamon bark and smudging sage.

Palate: The palate veers into a peach cobbler with a hint of mulled wine next to more of that vanilla cake before dry cedar and smoked fig lead to a whisper of a buttermilk biscuit.

Finish: The end has a yeasty doughnut vibe with stewed apple and plenty of cinnamon next to more of that cedar braided with wild sage.

Bottom Line:

This is just tasty. I like it over a single big ice cube or mixed into apple-cinnamon old fashioned in the fall.

42. Breckenridge Whiskey Imperial Stout Cask

ABV: 54.25%

Average Price: $65

The Whiskey:

This whiskey is a match made in Colorado. The whiskey is aged in imperial oatmeal stout from Breckenridge Brewing. The brewery and distillery are only two miles apart. So, there’s very little time between the beer getting emptied from the barrels and the whiskey getting filled in, adding extra layers of flavor to the final product.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose on this one is surprisingly fruity with a mix of dark berries that are almost tart with hints of ripe banana and chocolate-covered strawberries with a hint of burnt vanilla husks.

Palate: The palate dries out that strawberry while the chocolate darkens as salted caramel kicks with an eggnog spice base and a touch of dry and mild chili pepper flakes.

Finish: The finish lingers for a while as the burnt vanilla, caramel, and dark berries coalesce under the dark and bitter chocolate.

Bottom Line:

This is an excellent stout-finished whiskey. It’s a must-try if you’re in the Rocky Mountain state.

41. Reiger’s Kansas City Whiskey

ABV: 46%

Average Price: $37

The Whiskey:

This whiskey is a hardcore throwback to the 1800s. The whiskey in the bottle is a blend of straight bourbon, light corn whiskey (aged in uncharred oak), and straight rye that were all aged at least four years. Once those barrels are batched, 15-year-old Oloroso sherry is added to the whiskey to “rectify” it (which is a very old-school way of adding extra flavor to and proof a whiskey, or any spirit really). Since sherry is the main proofing agent (instead of water), it creates a richer texture and profile.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: A nutty sherry comes through on the nose with salted butterscotch and toffee next to corn husks, winter spices, and a touch of candied orange and pear.

Palate: Those corn husks turn into a sweet cornbread on the palate with dates, figs, and sultanas next to marzipan dipped in salted dark chocolate.

Finish: The winter spices kick up on the dry finish with more dried dark fruits, soft almond, and bitter chocolate tobacco.

Bottom Line:

This is a fascinating and tasty whiskey. I would save this for the holidays thanks to that flavor profile. Then, I’d use this for simple whiskey-forward cocktails.

40. WhistlePig Summerstock Whiskey Pit Viper Limited Edition “Solar Aged”

ABV: 43%

Average Price: $69

The Whiskey:

This new summer-ready release from WhistlePig is a blend of wheat and rye whiskeys. Once batched, that whiskey is finished in a toasted solera barrel (a barrel that is never fully emptied). Finally, the whiskey is batched, proofed, and bottled all under a 100% solar-powered farm and distillery.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Maple syrup over vanilla-forward pancakes with a hint of butter leads to a dash of cinnamon and orange with a twinge of nuttiness.

Palate: There’s a dry grassiness with woody cinnamon on the palate next to more of that sweet maple, a touch of citrus, and smudging sage.

Finish: There’s a thick blackberry jam on the finish with a scoop of vanilla ice cream underneath alongside very faint hints of brown spice and brown sugar.

Bottom Line:

This is a great option for fun summer backyard cocktails, ice-cold shots, and on the rocks sipping.

39. Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey

ABV: 45.2%

Average Price: $34

The Whiskey:

This Woodford mash bill utilizes 51% malted barley, 47% corn, and 2% rye, meaning this isn’t a single malt. The hot juice is then treated as a straight bourbon or rye and is aged in new American oak for at least four years before batching, proofing, and bottling.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose grows from a sense of rummy molasses, dried fruits, and nutty toffee towards soft cedar and a subtly savory fruit like squash.

Palate: The palate leans into the velvety dark chocolates and toffees with hints of Christmas spices while the sweet fruits fade and the cedar becomes somewhat toasted.

Finish: There’s an echo of coconut in the background as the fade leads back to that savory fruit with plenty of bitter chocolate and sweet and nutty toffee lingering the longest.

Bottom Line:

This is funky and fun. The savory fruit makes this a great pairing for watermelon and BBQ. That said, that funky savory fruit will be a bit much for classic cocktails — I’d recommend reaching for this when you want a unique experience.

38. Breckenridge Whiskey Finished in PX Naranja Cask

ABV: 48%

Average Price: $125

The Whiskey:

This is a batch of Breckenridge’s four to six-year-old whiskeys. Once batched, the whiskey is re-barreled into 20-year-old PX sherry casks that were used to macerate Seville oranges for eight months. The whiskey spends about three months finishing in those casks before batching, proofing, and bottling.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Candied peach and apricot lead to bitter chinotto orange with a deep sense of rum raisin and winter spice over lush vanilla.

Palate: That rum raisin really pops on the palate with a rich marmalade over cinnamon toast, fig pudding, and a touch of old spice barks and smudging sage.

Finish: The end leans hard into the chinotto with plenty of marmalade sweetness, winter spice, and cedar cigar humidors.

Bottom Line:

If you’re looking for an orange-bomb whiskey, this is it.

37. Bernheim Original Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey Barrel Proof Batch: A223

ABV: 59.4%

Average Price: $65

The Whiskey:

This new release from Heaven Hill is their famous wheated whiskey at barrel proof. The mash of 51% wheat, 37% corn, and 12% malted barley is fermented and distilled and then left for seven to nine years in open-air warehouses. Once batched, the whiskey goes into the bottle without any filtering or proofing.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: There’s a sense of a freshly baked loaf of whole wheat bread on the nose with a slight sweetness, toasted oats, soft dry nuts, dried fruits, and a layer of honey accented by a thin line of clove.

Palate: That honey and clove come out further on the palate as creamy spiced malt with a hint of choco caramel mingles with dark winter spices and a small note of vanilla.

Finish: The end sweetens with the caramel and honey as spiced dark chocolate counters on the hot finish.

Bottom Line:

This is a bold wheat whiskey. It does lean into sweet notes that make it very accessible and mixable into a cocktail.

36. Chicken Cock Double Oak Kentucky Whiskey

ABV: 46%

Average Price: $99

The Whiskey:

This new release from Chicken Cock is a new mix. The blend in the bottle is a mix of eight-year-old Kentucky whiskeys that have been double-barreled, meaning that they were aged in new American oak for a spell and then were re-barreled in new new American oak barrels. This adds an extra layer of fresh and vibrant wood sugars to the mix, really amping up the flavor profile with the wood.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Dark caramel opens the nose before diving into creamy espresso, dark chocolate-dipped cherry and raspberry, and a mild sense of really fancy Almond Joy.

Palate: Whiskey-soaked red berries and vanilla beans drive the palate before ice cream waffle cones, cherry ice cream, and holiday cakes full of winter spice, roasted nuts, and toasted coconut thrive on the taste.

Finish: The creaminess really amps up the finish with a sense of toffee pudding and cinnamon ice cream with a sense of berry compote spiked with allspice and clove over a mild sense of pipe tobacco and cedar bark.

Bottom Line:

This is a sweet whiskey that feels like a classic old bourbon. It’s solid in a cocktail and works wonders over a lot of ice.

35. Barrell Craft Spirits Private Release Islay Cask Finish

ABV: 62.08%

Average Price: $99

The Whiskey:

This new single-barrel release from Barrell Craft Spirits via ReserveBar is a blend of bourbon and rye whiskeys. Once batched, that whiskey went into a single barrel from Islay that held peated single malt whisky over in Scotland for years. That barrel was then selected by the team at ReserveBar and bottled 100% as-is.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose leans into smoked black pepper with a hint of salted caramel next to coconut nut clusters, demerara syrup, and a twinge of dried smoked cherry.

Palate: There’s an earthiness to the palate that’s almost mossy in a dry way next to more smoke cherry and wet brown sugar with a twinge of marzipan just kissed with dark orange.

Finish: The nuttiness drives the dry finish toward very thin whisps of smoked dark fruit and winter spice barks.

Bottom Line:

This is funky and fresh. It also offers a good bridge between Islay and Kentucky without overdoing either element. Try it neat, dive deep, and go from there.

34. Backbone Big Bash American Whiskey Blend of Straight Whiskeys Batch No. 1

ABV: 55%

Average Price: $65

The Whiskey:

This Indiana whiskey is a blend of straight rye and straight bourbon whiskeys. About 90% of that blend is from an array of finishing barrels that added anywhere from six months to two years of maturation to the original whiskeys.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose opens with a sense of dark berries, black cherry, and blood orange against soft vanilla, lightly toasted oak, and a sense of plum pudding cut with brandy butter.

Palate: The taste leans into the dark fruits with a dark chocolate orange feel next to woody winter spices, soft leather tobacco pouches, and a hint of marmalade.

Finish: The end lingers on the cinnamon bark and clove berries as a nice sense of roasted peach and stewed plums drive a soft sweetness toward rich spicy tobacco.

Bottom Line:

This is a solid sipper to have on hand for pretty much any occasion.

33. The Beverly High Rye Fine American Whiskey

ABV: 48%

Average Price: $60

The Whiskey:

This new whiskey is rendered from a marriage of Iowa’s famed Cedar Ridge and Indiana’s MGP whiskeys. The blend balances bourbon with a majority of rye in the mix to create a “high rye” American whiskey.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose is soft and full of rye bread crusts, a touch of pound cake, and a hint of marzipan with a mild “woodiness” below everything.

Palate: The palate feels very Irish Whiskey with a spiced maltiness — cinnamon and nutmeg mostly — next to wet brown sugar, floral honey, and a hint of lemon pepper.

Finish: The end really leans into the maltiness with a hint of nutshell woodiness and toffee sweetness next to mild raisin notes.

Bottom Line:

This is another nice table whiskey to have on hand for shaking or stirring up your favorite cocktails.

32. Grand Teton Private Stock Straight Corn Whiskey

ABV: 50%

Average Price: $80

The Whisky:

This high-altitude whiskey is made with 100% Idaho-grown corn. That corn is mashed with pure Rocky Mountain water, which is also used to proof the juice before bottling. But first, the whiskey spends 6.5 years resting in oak before single barrels are picked for a bottling run.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Maple syrup and clove-studded oranges lead on the nose with rum raisin, mild sour butter, and a hint of old cellar beams.

Palate: The palate is lush with a warm sense of mulled wine spices and sour cherry next to cinnamon buttered toast and soft yet sweet corn muffins.

Finish: The end has a smooth vanilla base with a hint of date and black tea next to buttery cornmeal with a hint of brown sugar.

Bottom Line:

This is a must-try if you’re in Idaho or trekking through Yellowstone this summer.

31. Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey

ABV: 45.2%

Average Price: $38

The Whiskey:

The mash bill on this special Woodford release clocks the wheat at 52% with 20% malted barley, 20% corn, and 8% rye. It’s an interesting four-grain mix given the high ratio of malted barley. The whiskey then goes through the Woodford process of triple distillation on pot stills and years of maturing in horse country.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: You’re greeted with a mix of vanilla next to pears stewed in cinnamon and butter with a note of dried roses and cedar.

Palate: The palate holds onto those notes while adding in more of the stewed fruit spiciness with hints of chocolate mint and a very distant note of toasted coconut.

Finish: The end is chewy and the pear becomes more of a pear stem or core as the taste dries out nicely.

Bottom Line:

This is one of the more unique expressions from Woodford Reserve that you can actually get. Reach for this when you’re looking for something a little different but still comforting.

30. Wyoming Whiskey Outryder American Straight Whiskey

ABV: 50%

Average Price: $81

The Whiskey:

This whiskey from Wymonig is a blend of an “almost” straight rye whiskey with a Wyoming Whiskey’s high-rye bourbon. That whiskey is just touched with local water before bottling.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Rich sourdough rye bread with a hint of caraway and dill leads to beeswax and orange rinds with a whisper of Black Forest cake on the nose.

Palate: The chocolate from that cake drives the palate as a whisper of taco seasoning leads to brown butter and this fleeting sense of orange creamsicle.

Finish: Pecan waffles, butter, and maple syrup drive the finish toward more dark spice and a touch of apple fritter with that creamy orange lurking beneath it all.

Bottom Line:

I have it on very good authority that this is whiskey Harrison Ford serves at his Jackson Hole ranch. So there’s that. That aside, this is a good on the rocks pour that also shines in cocktails.

29. Michter’s US*1 Small Batch Original Sour Mash Whiskey

ABV: 43%

Average Price: $50

The Whiskey:

This was the first American whiskey to be named “Whiskey of the Year” by The Whiskey Exchange in the U.K. back in 2019. The reason this is a “sour mash” and not a “bourbon” or “rye” is that the mash bill doesn’t focus on corn or rye, hence it’s just a sour mash whiskey.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose opens with smoked plums, crunchy rye crusts, a hint of caraway, and deep caramel with a hint of salt next to vanilla and apple/pear cider.

Palate: The sip really embraces the smoky dark fruit with hints of vanilla and cherry popping up next to winter spices and a touch of green savory herbs.

Finish: The whiskey carries that smoky plumminess through to the end with a nice nod to an oaky and bourbon-y vanilla underbelly.

Bottom Line:

This is just good whiskey. Drink it how you like it.

28. Balcones ZZ Top Tres Hombres Texas Whisky

ABV: 50%

Average Price: $60

The Whiskey:

ZZ Top worked directly with Master Distiller Jared Himstedt to blend three Balcones whiskies together. The blend is one part Balcone’s signature Blue Corn Whisky, one part Texas Single Malt, and one part Texas Rye. The idea behind the blends was to build the sip from a bold and oily base towards a fruity mid-palate that ends up nice and spicy.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: This opens with a Digestive Biscuit with a hint of brown butter, brown sugar, and pecan leading to a moment of dried juniper next to floral citrus.

Palate: The palate is bright with a grapefruit soda vibe — more Fresca than Jarritos — as a moment of cumin dances with some suede, grape must, and a salty cracker.

Finish: The end leans into the floral side of the citrus while adding in a hint of fresh ginger spice and apple cider cinnamon candies.

Bottom Line:

As far as celebrity whiskeys go, this is one of the best. It drinks well on its own but also works in funky whiskey-forward cocktails that need a kick in the ass.

27. Chattanooga Whiskey Straight Malt Whiskey Finished in Cabernet Sauvignon Casks Tennessee High Malt

ABV: 47.5%

Average Price: $59

The Whiskey:

This whiskey is made from bourbon mash bills with a high level of specialty malt, especially toasted, roasted, and caramel malts made by Riverbend Malt House in Asheville, North Carolina. Those barrels spent four years resting before batching and re-barreling into Cabernet Sauvignon casks from Silver Oak Cellars out in Sonoma County, California. After a final 18 months of resting in those red wine barrels, the whiskey is batched, just kissed with water, and bottled.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: There’s a sweet red tart berry vibe on the nose that leads to blackstrap molasses with a spiced cherry cough drop vibe next to a hint of sweet brown bread.

Palate: That red fruit drives the palate toward salted caramel and old oak that’s been soaked in cherry brandy with a fleeting sense of a savory green herb garden lurking beneath it all.

Finish: There’s a sense of malted cookies dipped in honey and blackberry juice next to softly spiced dark chocolate flaked with salt.

Bottom Line:

This is a deeply fruity and dark whiskey that feels like a great after-meal sipper.

26. F.E.W. Motor Oil Whiskey Finished in Rum and Vermouth Casks

ABV: 50.5%

Average Price: $59

The Whiskey:

This whiskey is a collab between Illinois’ F.E.W. Spirits and the rock band Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. The whiskey in the bottle is a blend of F.E.W. Bourbon finished in rum barrels, F.E.W. Bourbon finished in vermouth barrels, an
