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
"Cloves, brown sugar, and molasses open up early on the nose, with a bit of hogo-tinged, funky rum, and eventually spearmint and grain spice. The palate is thin upfront, with cocoa powder and rum-filled dark chocolate truffles, followed by leather and oak. The finish is quick and offers allspice, cassia bark, graham crackers, orange zest, and most prominently, bitter barrel char. The rum influence from the secondary maturation is the dominant force in this dram, overtaking the whiskey at times."
