Celebrate the release of Monogram Whiskey 2026 Edition with an evening of whiskey, sherry and Spanish-inspired flavors in the Hey! Hey! Club. This experience explores the role sherry plays in J. Rieger & Co.’s identity—and how it shapes our most sought-after expression of Kansas City Whiskey. Your ticket includes a welcome cocktail, Spanish tapas-inspired food and a raw bar, plus a guided tasting led by Co-Founder Ryan Maybee.
Guests will enjoy a vertical tasting of the 2024, 2025 and 2026 Monogram Whiskey releases alongside the 15-year-old Oloroso Sherry from Williams & Humbert, discovering the shared character and distinct personality of each annual release. Ryan will share the story behind the addition of sherry to our Kansas City Whiskey blend, our relationship with Williams & Humbert in Jerez, Spain, and the ongoing exploration of sherry in whiskey blending and aging.
At the pinnacle of that exploration is Monogram. Crafted using ten historic Oloroso sherry botas—traditional Spanish aging casks—our annual release draws on solera aging and fractional blending. By drawing only a portion of the whiskey from the botas and replenishing them with additional whiskey, we carry forward a connection to earlier releases while allowing the blend to evolve. The result is a whiskey that remains recognizably Monogram, yet offers something new to discover each year.
Whether you’re a longtime Monogram enthusiast or simply sherry curious, join us to taste three years side by side, explore the sherry that helps tell their story and hear directly from Ryan Maybee about this truly unique American Whiskey expression.
