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
"The nose is medicinal and minty upfront, with rye spice and vanilla, along with some floral qualities. The palate showcases caramel, oak, cedar box, baking spices, rye, and light toffee. Find a resonating spearmint medicinal note on a short finish, with black pepper and buttery sweetness lurking in its wake. "
