Dark amber in color, with aromas of cherry coulis, woodsmoke, and cooked sweet strawberries. The palate is rich, lively, and loaded with red fruit notes, as well as watermelon, cinnamon spice, melted brown sugar, chocolate, and white pepper, with the wood and smoke influence lingering deftly in the background. The finish is long and rich, with flavors of bitter chocolate, allspice, vanilla bean, and more cinnamon. A complex, flavorful, well-made whiskey.
Known for its peppery, spicy bite, Rye serves as the ideal base for cocktails like the Sazerac, Manhattan or Old Fashioned. In order for a spirit to be labeled an American Rye Whiskey, the mash bill must be comprised of at least 51% rye grain. The remainder of the mash is most often a combination of malted barley, wheat or corn. After distillation is complete, the spirit is transferred to unused, charred white oak barrels for a minimum of two years, though many producers choose to age longer.
