This version is their Roundstone Rye (100% rye mashbill aged just under two years in new Minnesota white oak) released at cask strength, then finished in a barrel that once held their 1757 Virginia Brandy.

Tasting Notes

"For rye fans, this is a really fun sipper. The grassy, green tea flavors of their rye are well tempered with the grapiness of the brandy. It still runs a bit hot, but there's lots to chew on between the warm spicy notes, the bran flakes cereal element and the toffee richness. Add a big cube for best enjoyment. "
