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
"Warm amber in color with the bouquet full of buttery toffee, sharp rye spice, and caramel. The sharpness carries over into the palate with notes of burnt vanilla sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and white pepper. This rye finishes with warm baking spice. A young, but well-balanced rye. "
