I have been curious about this rare malted rye, and it is finally available to me at a few shops here in Missouri. My notes are on a neat dram from Batch 3. According to their website the mashbill is 51% malted rye 34% rye 12% corn and 3% malted barley. I know that Distiller states that it is 100% rye, perhaps Batch 1 was. It has the rye flavor and spice, but, is not as sharp as most ryes. It has a wonderful soft, almost creamy, mouthfeel The finish is rather long with a gentle spiciness. I hope you live in one of the few states that carries this dram, or at least your state's dram laws are liberal enough to ship it in. This is truly a unique style of rye
