The Creation of ROW 94
Bentley first introduced ROW 94 at the Green River Distilling Co. in Owensboro, Ky., back in September. The singer’s passion for whiskey is evident in his meticulous approach to the craft. “A lot of years of thinking, researching and trying different whiskeys went into creating ROW 94,” Bentley shared. He emphasized his journey from simply consuming any whiskey handed to him during his college days to developing a deep appreciation for the spirit, refined through sharing great flavors with friends.
Bentley specified that he wanted his bourbon to be 94-proof, citing a preference for a bolder taste, and insisted on aging it for at least four years, which he believes is when the flavor really matures. He described ROW 94 as “a serious whiskey that doesn’t take itself too seriously,” highlighting his excitement about finally being able to share his creation with the world.
Key Ingredients
What sets ROW 94 apart is its exceptional ingredient composition: 70% Kentucky-grown corn, 21% rye, and 9% malted and row barley. This carefully selected mash bill results in a robust 94-proof bourbon that is aged in new White Oak barrels for four years, allowing it to develop a rich and complex character, pleasing to both beginners and seasoned whiskey drinkers.
Mark Erwin, CEO of Bardstown Bourbon Company and Green River, reflected on Bentley’s dedication, saying, “Dierks’ passion for whiskey and doing things the right way was evident from the first time we met him. He loves the Green River Distillery and wanted it to be the home for ROW 94. We are excited to be partnering with him and his team on this great brand and look forward to seeing what they can do with this great liquid.”
