Cody Road Bourbon and Rye are each made from entirely local ingredients. Cody Road Bourbon is made from a mash of 70% corn, 20% wheat and 10% unmalted barley. The Burchett brothers source the corn from a local farmer in LeClaire, while they purchase the wheat and barley from a farmer in Reynolds, Illinois. Cody Road Rye is made from a mash of 100% rye grains which the Burchett brothers source from a farmer in Fulton, Illinois. After the grains are milled and mashed, they are fermented for six days before being distilled in a 1,000 liter, handmade Kothe German pot still, which the brothers nicknamed Rose.
