JT Meleck American Rice Whiskey High Proof (750ml) Baked potatoes Recette Swissmilk. JT Meleck American Rice Whiskey High Proof is produced in Louisiana using locally grown rice in place of traditional whiskey grains. Distilled and bottled by the Meleck family, the whiskey highlights the soft texture and naturally rounded character that rice brings to the spirit while offering added concentration and intensity at a higher proof. The profile shows notes of vanilla, caramel, toasted marshmallow, baking spice, and light oak, with a rich mouthfeel and gentle sweetness balanced by peppery heat on the finish. Despite the higher proof, the whiskey remains smooth and approachable, with the grain character staying front and center. A distinctive American whiskey that works well neat, with a splash of water, or in spirit forward cocktails where its texture and sweetness can shine. Crafted and bottled in Louisiana.
