Although it is comprised of 65.25%, corn, 34% wheat, and 0.75% rye (a precise recipe shared to us by the Master Distiller), its is not technically a bourbon as the grains are fermented, distilled and aged separately before blending into the final product.

Tasting Notes
"Rye makes up only about 1% of but this blended whiskey, but it's taste seems to play a bigger role. It's a very spicy whiskey, and the oak, too, contributes more notes of fresh-cut wood than of the sweet vanilla typical of a bourbon. Coming in at over 100 proof, it's definitely an assertive dram; this is one to serve over ice or tamed in a cocktail, where its boldness can play with complementary ingredients."
