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 is one of those whiskeys that takes some time to open up, but when it does, it's worth a few minutes of wait time. The nose opens up to dazzling aromatics of tart apples, spearmint, clove, leather, and oak that further develop a complex aroma akin to roasted green tea. The palate starts off tart, with flavors of ripe apricot and tart plum, but richer flavors of milk chocolate and more roasted green tea and fresh mint come in to the midpalate. A big hit of spice wraps it all up into the finish, playing off tartness and toasted cereal notes. Lots going on here, worth slowing down to sip. "
