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
"This is an impressively gentle young rye with an unusual mash bill, combining malted and unmalted rye grains. Light-bodied with notes of vanilla, maple, and pecan, it finishes with a hint of banana. It's a solid sipper from Cedar Ridge."
