RyeUnlike bourbon, rye whiskey can be made anywhere in the world. But if made in the US, the mash bill recipe must be at least 51% rye and it must be aged in new, charred oak barrels with no age requirement. Elsewhere, the rye whiskey will be made keeping the country of origin's rules regarding the recipe and minimum aging.

Tasting Notes
"Waxy honey and chrysanthemum bud lead on the nose, with lemon juice, overripe mushy apples, and blackberries. The palate offers baking spices and brown sugar in a combination along the lines of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, as well as vanilla and dried apricots. The finish is rich and warming, with tannic oak and rye spice, spearmint, and a touch of leather."
