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
"Spicy and light, with a slight floral finish. Sometimes whiskeys taste like what they are, and this really tastes like rye bread! Very clean finish with tart apricot notes."
