Overview

More Info

As Utah’s first distiller of record, Hugh Moon was producing rye whiskey for the Mormon pioneers nearly two centuries ago. Born and raised in England, he left his former life behind to journey west with the Mormon settlers. He and his family would play a pivotal role in establishing infrastructure and commerce all over the Utah territories, but his most memorable accomplishments were tied to the production of “strong drink,” or whiskey. He built his distillery on land abundant with grain and blessed with pristine water that flowed down into the Salt Lake Valley from the Wasatch Mountains.Awards: Gold Medal, 2021 New York International Spirits Competition

Tasting notes

The palate is relatively mild for a 100% rye, but there is still plenty of cinnamon, clove, pepper, caramel, brown sugar, and fresh-cut oak. The finish is medium length with more spice, smoke, and a thick texture.

ADDITIONAL INFO

Moon's Best 100% Rye Whiskey

Dented Brick is named in honor of the well driller that was responsible for the amazing artesian well that is located in the distillery and is the source of water for our spirits. The well driller was killed in a blazing gunfight that left impressions in the bricks of his house. Some of those "dented bricks" are integrated into distillery building and also gave it its name.

Drink in the aroma of fresh vanilla and peppercorn. Savor the richness of its texture, peppered with notes of brown sugar, honey and caramel. Indulge in a long, luxurious finish with traces of rich oak and a gentle, smoky sweetness. With Moon’s Best Rye Whiskey, the only thing richer than its history is its flavor.

Our Story

It started with a simple idea: What if we could build a world-class distillery in one of the driest states in the nation? A lifelong love for spirits united a group of passionate friends who undertook this challenge together, and we began building the foundation of Dented Brick® one stone at a time.  We live purposefully and joyfully among the Wasatch Mountains of Utah, and our spirits reflect the character and integrity of that existence. We strive to create unique spirits that tell authentic tales about the land and the history of our beloved home.We utilize locally-sourced ingredients in our premium brands, and engage in responsible and sustainable production practices to create craft spirits that meet the highest standards of quality and integrity.
I invite you to experience the well-balanced flavors of original recipes and the stories from which they were born. ‍ To your good health and a well-lived life.

The Most Important Ingredient

When I set out to find the ideal land on which to build our distillery, I was armed with one critical piece of advice from an old moonshiner I had met in my travels and education in Kentucky: “It starts with the water!” We needed a property that had access to the best water we could find.The search would end with a gift from heaven (and mother nature) — a property with an artesian well. The water flows clean and pure from the Wasatch Mountains, forming the perfect foundation for our spirits. We later learned that the land belonged to renowned distiller and entrepreneur Hugh Moon — a historic connection that made it all seem like fate. Hugh produced whiskey in Salt Lake City for the early Mormon pioneers in the 1850’s.
The snow melt runoff from Utah’s Wasatch mountains flows gently through the earth to our artesian water well, shedding impurities and attracting the minerals that make the unparalleled taste of our brands possible. This year’s snow is next year’s whiskey!
