Judson & Moore Whiskey — Chicago Distillery

Why we carry them

Judson & Moore is a Chicago distillery making bourbon and rye on Illinois grain. We carry their core trio because they're the most-honest example of a local whiskey we can put on the shelf — distilled, aged, and bottled here, with mash bills and batch numbers printed on every label. If you live in our zip code and you want to buy bourbon that didn't fly in from Kentucky, this is the bottle.

The three bottles · what's different about each

Bourbon — Mash: 73% yellow corn, 17% rye, 10% malted barley · 94 proof · Batch 4. Higher rye content than most bourbons; sweeter than a wheated bourbon, drier than a high-corn bourbon.
Red Corn Bourbon — Mash: 77.5% Bloody Butcher heirloom red corn (from Cow Creek Farms in Paxton, IL), 12.5% rye, 10% malted barley · 94 proof · Batch 5. The corn variety changes the entire profile — earthier, more savory.
Rye — Mash: 60% rye, 30% yellow corn, 10% malted barley · 94 proof · Batch 3. The flagship. Higher corn than a hot rye, so it reads balanced rather than spicy.

Why "94 proof" matters

All three Judson & Moore expressions land at 94 proof. That's not a marketing accident — it's the proof at which the distiller felt each whiskey was best, and they bottle there rather than dropping to 80 to widen margins or cranking to 110 for a harder-hitting label. It also means the three bottles compare directly: differences you taste are mash bill, not water.
