Bring the flavors of a classic Tennessee whiskey to your home distilling project with our Tennessee Whiskey Mash Bill Kit.

This kit is built around a mash bill inspired by the grain recipe commonly associated with one of America’s most famous Tennessee whiskeys. The recipe emphasizes sweet corn, balanced rye spice, and malted barley for a smooth, approachable whiskey profile.

Unlike many grain kits that only provide the grains, we’ve included the essential enzymes needed to maximize starch conversion and improve efficiency, making this kit suitable for both beginners and experienced distillers.

To help create a more authentic aged whiskey character, we’ve also included charred oak that can be used during aging to develop notes of vanilla, caramel, toasted oak, and light smoke.

Whether you’re creating a white whiskey or aging your spirit for months, this kit provides everything needed to produce a classic Tennessee whiskey-style mash.
