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 features licorice and cocoa powder, along with Honey Nut Cheerios, and barrel char. The palate has a chewy mouthfeel, and offers baking spices, toasted rye bread, sour cherries, burnt caramel, and butterscotch. The finish is fiery and lengthy, with booming spice, star anise, cloves, green oak, and vanilla extract. "
