Templeton: The Soul of Iowa Rye and Bourbon, Between Heritage and Renewal

Born in the small town of Templeton, Iowa, the Templeton Distillery is part of the American whiskey legend, paying homage to a rich and daring history. Since the Prohibition era, the famous Templeton Rye has established itself as an essential reference, appreciated even in Chicago circles and even by Al Capone himself. Today, Templeton perpetuates this legacy while asserting a modern and innovative vision of the art of whiskey. The distillery is deeply rooted in its terroir: the corn comes exclusively from farms located within a 15-mile radius of the production site, guaranteeing exemplary traceability and a strong local connection. Each step is carried out with particular rigor, from controlled fermentation to distillation in Forsyths stills, to aging in heavily charred American oak barrels. The result is a recognizable style, authentic and faithful to Iowa's roots. While Templeton Rye remains the house's flagship, the range has been expanded with a distinctive Straight Bourbon . Non-chill filtered, bottled in their natural color, and aged with patience, Templeton whiskeys reveal an aromatic complexity that combines strength, authenticity, and refinement. By combining the boldness of its history with a contemporary approach, Templeton has established itself as a key player in the revival of American whiskey. Its creations embody not only the pride of Iowa, but also the spirit of sharing and passion that drives the culture of bourbon and rye in the United States.
