Bare Knuckle Straight Rye Single Barrel Whiskey

Bare Knuckle Straight Rye Whiskey Single Barrel Cask Strength is made with 100% rye, sourced from local Virginia farms. It is double-distilled, aged for at least 2 years in a single charred new American White Oak barrel, and bottled directly from the barrel, without dilution. This spirit can range from ~118 to ~125 proof, and produces a wonderful depth of flavor and heat.

Bare Knuckle Straight Rye Single Barrel Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: The nose brings forth a lot of grain and young oak. Corn leads the way with soft wheat, crisp apple, and a layer of young oak lingering behind.

Palate: With notes of vanilla and cinnamon, similar to a sweet roll.

Finish: It finishes with rye pepper, spiciness.
