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 showcases menthol, vanilla bean, oak, brown sugar, and anise. The palate is soft upfront, lacking much depth, and then opens up more into rye spice, cocoa powder, barrel char, orange zest, and sour cherries. On a short finish find tannic oak, white pepper, and a fiery cinnamon note a la Red Hots."
