Detailed Description

Bear Creek Distillery Rye Whiskey is a young whiskey crafted in single batches from organic dark rye and then aged in American white oak barrels. The final product is watered down to 90 proof, and while it certainly embraces the characteristic gruffness of the style, lacks the balance that would make it a neat sipper.

Bear Creek Distillery Rye Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: Unique and interesting. Initially, a grappa-like heat invades the nostrils, but then nuances of leather wineskin and Spanish coffee leap forward. There is a pronounced dusty note of cacao husk present.

Palate: Initial palate hit is extremely bitter with lingering buttery notes. The rye character is not quite as peppery as expected; instead it starts with a fiery astringency and leads in to a burnt sugar-laden finish.

Finish: Rich and Spicy.
