The Henderson Black Rye Blended Bourbon

The Henderson Black Rye Blended Bourbon

Created exclusively for The Henderson, the celebrated beachfront resort in Destin, Florida, this Black Rye Blended Bourbon captures the spirit of the Emerald Coast in a bottle. Its label tells the story plainly: a whiskey that seamlessly melds the rich flavors of oat, corn, red wheat, rye, and barley — a five-grain blend that gives the pour unusual breadth, from soft cereal sweetness to warm rye spice. Like the resort itself, which draws its character from the natural springs and amber-white sands of Destin, this bourbon is a product of its place, distilled and bottled by Timber Creek Distillery in Crestview, Florida, just up the road in the Panhandle pines.

Five Grains, One Coastal Whiskey

Henderson Beach Resort partnered with Timber Creek Distillery — a grain-to-glass operation on a family farm north of Destin — to craft private-label spirits worthy of the resort’s dining rooms and beach bars. Timber Creek’s approach is distinctive: rather than mashing all grains together, the distillery is known for treating each grain with individual care, then blending for a complete, layered flavor profile. In this bottling, the darker, toastier character of black rye anchors the blend, while oat and red wheat soften the edges and corn brings classic bourbon sweetness. The result is a whiskey that works as comfortably in an old fashioned at sunset as it does neat after dinner.

Every bottle is hand crafted in small batches at the Crestview distillery, reflecting the same attention to detail that has made Timber Creek one of Florida’s most awarded craft distilleries. For guests of The Henderson, it is more than a house pour — it is a keepsake of the coast, blending resort hospitality with genuine Florida farm-distillery craftsmanship. Raise a glass to the springs, the sand, and the slow art of good whiskey.
