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
"Dark chocolate truffles lead on the nose, with toasted rye bread and dill pickles combining for a deli sandwich effect. There's also black licorice, spicy oak, and cinnamon. The palate offers cedar chips with cinnamon and cloves, chocolate malt balls, baked apples, Red Hots, and aniseed. A spicy, moderate length finish showcases spearmint, black pepper, parbaked dough and oak."
