About Rye
As American as the bald eagle, rye whiskey was first brewed in the American Northeast in the 1600s. Even George Washington distilled it after leaving the Oval Office, so there’s no way of denying its origin. It’s distinguished from bourbon for its original and unique spicy notes.
By law, rye whiskey must be made from at least 51% rye grain, aged in new and charred oak barrels for at least two years, and bottled at no more than 62,5% ABV.
Bright and floral on the nose, with cherry blossom, eucalyptus, and earthy notes of hay. The palate brings creamy flavors of cherry cola, spearmint, and cocoa nibs, with savory hints of sunflower seeds and sea salt. A long, complex finish with no harsh burn.
