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 aroma is mild with scents of dark berries and oak along with a touch of vanilla and herbal rye. The mouthfeel is average with a smooth and medium sweet flavor. Tannins are gentle and there's a bit of chocolate here. The finish is of moderate length and is pleasant with a more dark fruit and a warming spice. While not super complex, it is easy to drink and balanced. "
