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
"Downslope Distilling's Double Diamond Rye strikes a nice balance between the heat of a young rye and the mellowing influence of American oak. The expected spiciness of rye is tempered by notes of vanilla and toasted marshmallow. It's a surprisingly sippable dram for a young rye coming in at 100 proof."
