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
"After helping supply rye to so many other brands, one would have high expectations for MGP Ingredients first brand of their own. Thankfully, Rossville Union doesn't disappoint. It's a very nicely balanced rye, well-rounded by its time in oak but with a solid dose of the grain's signature spice. Vanilla, charred oak, and white pepper come through on the palate. It's affordably priced and easy to enjoy neat or with just a cube or two of ice."
