    Unlike 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.

    new charred oak & ex-sherry

Tasting Notes

"Subtle dried fruit aromas, raisins and dates primarily, reveal a strong sherry influence on this whiskey. There's a very light rye pepperiness but then the sherry once again takes over. The other end of the spectrum from many of the rock 'em, sock 'em ryes available, and more of an intro style."
