Still using the same grain mash bill as their rye whiskey (80% rye, 15% malted barley, 5% malted rye), this is aged from 6-9 months in 15 gallon white oak quarter-casks.
The whiskey is then transferred to barrels that previously aged California's Quady Vya Sweet Vermouth.

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
"The aroma is a mix of dried herbs, red fruit, and dark rye grains. The wine influence comes through on the palate providing a tang and a very subtle sweetness to the whiskey, but it is still by no means a sweet whiskey. The robust spice factor comes through loud and clear on the finish. Though this can be sipped on its own, this expression is well suited to make a cocktail (perhaps the obvious Manhattan cocktail should be made first). "
