Tim Smith Southern Rye Whisky — Bold, Smooth, and Unmistakably Southern

From Moonshine Legend to Master Distiller

If you’ve ever watched Moonshiners on TV, you know Tim Smith. From running homemade stills in the Virginia backwoods to building a legitimate craft whiskey brand, Tim has earned a loyal following for his dedication to honest, flavorful spirits. Tim Smith Southern Rye Whisky takes that moonshiner grit and polishes it into a rye whiskey that’s as smooth as it is spicy — a true taste of the American South in every sip.


A Southern Spin on Classic Rye

Unlike many traditional rye whiskies that lean heavily on bold spice and sharp edges, Tim Smith’s approach brings a touch of southern sweetness and a hint of soft smoke. Made with a mash bill rich in rye grain and balanced by a touch of corn and malted barley, this rye is distilled with care and bottled at a generous 90 proof (45% ABV). It’s robust without being harsh, and designed to be just as enjoyable neat as it is in your favorite classic cocktail.


Tasting Notes — Warm, Spicy, and Smooth

Appearance: Deep golden amber with bright, inviting legs that cling to the glass — a sign of its rich mouthfeel.

Aroma: A welcoming nose of cracked black pepper and toasted rye bread leads into subtle notes of caramel, honeycomb, and a whisper of oak char. Hints of dried orange peel and vanilla round out the bouquet.

Palate: On the tongue, this rye shows its true Southern charm. The first sip reveals peppery rye spice and a pleasant warmth, quickly balanced by sweet caramel, soft vanilla, and a touch of toasted grain. There’s a mellow smokiness that lingers beneath, adding depth without overpowering the sweetness.

Finish: Medium-long, clean, and satisfying. Lingering notes of spice, oak, and a faint brown sugar sweetness leave you ready for the next pour.


Why Whiskey Fans Love It

Tim Smith’s Southern Reserve Rye is appreciated for staying true to what a rye should be — flavorful, lively, and just a little bit rebellious — but without the rough bite that turns some drinkers away. It’s an approachable sipper for newcomers and a reliable bottle for longtime rye lovers looking for something with genuine character.


Serve It Your Way

One of the best things about this rye is how versatile it is:

  • Neat: Pour a couple of ounces into your favorite whiskey glass and let it breathe for a minute. The warmth and smooth spice come alive at room temperature.

  • On the Rocks: A single large ice cube will mellow the spice slightly and draw out more caramel and vanilla notes.

  • Classic Cocktails: This rye shines in a Manhattan or Old Fashioned. The balanced spice and touch of sweetness complement bitters and vermouth beautifully.


Food Pairing Inspiration

Pair Tim Smith Southern Reserve Rye with hearty Southern barbecue, smoked brisket, or pulled pork sandwiches. It also stands up well alongside charcuterie, aged cheddar, or a piece of dark chocolate for a simple, satisfying treat.


A Southern Spirit That’s Ready for Anything

Whether you’re gathering friends on the porch for a late summer evening, fixing a round of cocktails at your next party, or enjoying a quiet moment at home, Tim Smith Southern Reserve Rye delivers a down-to-earth warmth that’s easy to appreciate any night of the week.


Why It Belongs in Your Whiskey Lineup
