A rare 100% rye single-barrel release that delivers pure, assertive rye character with an herbal lift and citrus brightness.
Description
This six-year expression emphasizes the grain itself—herbal and citrus notes sit alongside classic rye spice and oak. The single-barrel selection offers a focused and memorable profile.
It's an excellent example of what a 100% rye mashbill can be: bold, expressive and distinct.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Bright rye spice with citrus and a hint of oak.
- Palate: Peppery rye spice with citrus forwardness and herbal nuances.
- Finish: Crisp oak and lingering herbal spice.
Why This Bottle Stands Out
Being 100% rye and a barrel pick gives this bottle an uncommon intensity and purity of flavor—ideal for anyone exploring the full potential of rye whiskey.
Perfect For
- Rye-forward cocktails like the Sazerac
- Tasting flights focused on grain character
- Collectors of single-barrel rye releases
