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
"Grassy and herbaceous rye comes through along with tobacco leaves and a light dusting of apples. As you taste, those fruity notes turn darker with a raisin profile along with dark rye bread and oak. Its medium sweetness is balanced with a barrel spice flavor. Overall, more savory and spice-driven than sweet. A bit rough around the edges, but not unpleasant. Still, not sure it's worthy as a sipper. Would probably add ice and a splash of cola or ginger ale. "
