This sour mash rye is fermented over the course of five to seven days and distilled in their 500-gallon copper still (affectionately named Chester Copperpot). All of the grain for this 100% rye is local and milled at the distilling for more control over the end product which is aged up to 5 years in new American oak.

Tasting Notes
"Starting with a rich caramelly rye, this whiskey has a lovely sweet, dark char that is contrasted nicely by candied ginger and orange peels. The mouthfeel is slightly oily with delicate sugar. It reminds a bit of sweet granola with toasted pecans, like breakfast. It finishes spicy but well balanced; not too hot and with a dry, creamy finish."
