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
"The nose is springy and fresh, with notes of thyme, dill, fresh spearmint, sweet apples, and cinnamon. The palate tastes like a boozy iced cinnamon apple tea with mint—Snapple for adults! The finish is fruity and minty, backed up by sweet spices. (Review for 62% ABV)"
