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 shows some green rye notes along with darkly toasted bread, cola, and dark fruits. While there is some initial roundness and sweetness on the palate, the whiskey then turns a bit hot and tannic. The finish is bitter with more cherry cola flavors at the end. Not sure this has quite come together. "
