The eventual release of Ragtime Rye has long been the goal of the New York Distilling Company, based in Brooklyn. As their whiskey came of age, in 53-gallon new, charred American oak barrels, the distillery released Chief Gowanus, an aged gin, and Rock and Rye, incorporating one year old rye whiskey. Here, the matured spirit, a straight rye whiskey, uses locally-grown rye grown specifically for the distillery in its mash bill.
It is aged at least three years. Released September 2015. .

Tasting Notes
"On the nose, find the type of spicy profile which serves as a dead giveaway of a rye whiskey. There's also wood, grain, and pepper. The palate offers more rye spice, a touch of fruit in the background, and a light caramel, with rounded, smooth flavors. The rye spice and oak close out the finish for a smooth sipper and well-aged entrant to the burgeoning rye marketplace. "
