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 full of young, raw grain. Lots of honey, hops, and apple cider. It's shocking at first but calms down after it sits in the glass for a while. In the mouth, it's obviously a very young spirit, white pepper spicy and juicy, with toffee, apples, grass, and bitter mint. Overall, it's a rye that manages to make its lack of age work in its favor. "
