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 aromas such as apple skins, sweet vanilla, and gentle barrel spices. There's a touch of char smoke as well. Moving on to the taste, the rye is tangy with a bit of chewiness. Leather, cinnamon, and a touch of orange peel are added to the flavors found on the nose. The finish is on the tart and bitter side. A tasty rye and one that will please those that prefer their whiskeys to be on the bittersweet rather than the full on sweet side. Another classic from Wild Turkey. "
