Product Description
Rye Grain Straight Malt Whiskey.
Rye is a grain with roots embedded in American spirits history. Easier to grow and hardier than barley, rye was king when it came to distilling whiskey in colonial America. With its spicy, grassy character, rye whiskey was the main type of whiskey consumed in the United States from the late 18th to the early 20th century. The mash bill of this particular grain whiskey is 85% malted barley and 15% malted rye. This small proportion of rye gives our whiskey a spicy bold complexity that compliments and balances the sweet toasted cereal characteristics of the malted barley.
