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.
Glowing with a golden-brown hue that promises magic. Take a whiff and let the complex and rich aromas of green apple mingle with the cozy scents of barn hay, caramel, and a hint of banana bread. On the first sip your palate is greeted by the sweet embrace of pear and honeysuckle, followed by the deep, rich undertones of muscovado sugar. Surprise guests of almond, cinnamon, and a touch of sawn-wood dance around, adding layers upon layers of flavor. And just when you think you've experienced it all, the finale of waffle cone wraps it up in a smooth, light burn with a brilliant spice that lingers like the last note of your favorite song.
