Category: Blended Straight Rye Whisky

Date Tasted:

Alcohol: 50%
Amber color. Aromas and flavors of buttered kettle corn, peach creme brulee, mocha toffee, and buttercream frosted cup cakes with a fruity medium-to-full body and a smooth, subtle, long finish that shows notes of honey buttered cinnamon raisin toast, raspberry white chocolate truffles, and sassafras float. A decadent, super creamy, almost buttery, Rye with a kaleidoscope of attractive flavors; this will be great as a slow sipper to see how it evolves, or a top shelf cocktail base.

About
Blended Straight Rye Whisky
Blended Straight Rye Whiskey is just that, a blend of two or more straight rye whiskeys with one another. Straight Rye Whiskey is made up of a minimum of 51% rye, has been aged for at least two years, and has not been blended with other spirits, so any and all of the whiskeys used in a blended straight rye whiskey must meet these standards.
