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
"Frey Ranch's straight rye deftly balances sweetness and spice, producing an assertive whiskey that announces itself with a pleasant bite and notes of vanilla, molasses, and dark tobacco. Its lasting finish is warming with nutmeg and a hint of smoke. It's a richly flavorful rye, and a unique bottle to acquire for fans of the category."
