It's bottled at 95 proof, with an initial limited-run hitting shelves in October 2016. Expect future releases to grow in size. Note: As of November 2018, the distillery has replaced this straight rye whiskey with one aged a minimum of four years.

Tasting Notes

"Bright spearmint leads on the nose with a range of herbal and medicinal notes, and traces of vanilla and cocoa. Find cedar and dry oak on the palate, along with more of its minty-herbal side. There's also plenty of rye spice, and lighter notes of chocolate and cloves. The finish is long and a bit hot, offering more of the same, with cedar, mint, chocolate, as well as touches of black pepper and rye spice. Finally a bit of prunes and dried fruits on the finish. Letting it open up for a few minutes offers more on the sweeter and fruity side."
