James Oliver American Rye
Rye
Indio Spirits // (bottled in Oregon), USA
Oats are oddly found on the nose, with additional notes of cream, peppery rye bread, and lots of bitter orange. Cherry blossom, rosewater, and cloves soon follow suit.
There's a sharp alcohol kick as it goes into the mouth, and a big rye spice with caramel, saltwater taffy, and seaweed. A splash of water brings out more toffee and cherry.

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
"This 100% rye whiskey is sourced from an undisclosed distiller. It's aged four years in barrels that have received the deep, dark "alligator hide" char #4 then bottled by Indio Spirits in Portland, Oregon. "
