Empire Rye, Cask Finished Straight Rye Whiskey
Category: Cask-Finished Rye Whiskey
Date Tasted:
7/14/2022

Golden amber color. Earthy aromas of saddle soap and leather, hemp and pumpkin oil, brown-buttered biscuits, and haystack with a lightly tannic, crisp, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a peppery, compelling, medium-long caramelized citrus peels, peppery spices, and hints of bark and mulch finish. A somewhat rustic but very interesting nonetheless Rye for adventurous drammers and cocktailians.

About
Cask-Finished Rye Whiskey
Rye Whisky must contain a minimum of 51% rye grain, be distilled at less than 80% ABV (160 proof) and be aged for a minimum of two years in new charred barrels. A small amount of straight Rye whiskey is bottled and marketed, but most of the industry production is blended into other whiskies to give them additional character and structure. Canadians frequently refer to their whisky as "Rye," though it is in fact made primarily from corn or wheat. A Cask-Finished Rye Whiskey will undergo additional maturation in one or more barrels, the previous contents of which contribute to the aromas and flavors of the final product. Examples include but are not limited to used Rum, Cognac, Port, Sherry, Madeira, Stout, and maple barrels.
