It was a bit of a wild idea. A 100% rye mash bill, aged in used Uncle Nearest barrels, and bottled at a clean 100 proof. Honestly? Could’ve gone sideways. But instead—it nailed it.
What came out is basically rye, leveled up. All the bold spice you’d expect, but with this rich, smooth swagger that makes you double-check the label like, “Wait, this is 100% rye?” Yup. Sure is.
You’ve got that light vanilla cream right up front—smooth and sweet like it’s trying to win you over (and spoiler: it will). Then comes the caramelized sugar, like someone took your favorite dessert and gave it a little whiskey twist. And just when you’re settling into the sweetness, bam—here comes that classic rye spice, tapping you on the shoulder like, “Hey, don’t forget I’ve got a little kick.” It’s got all the fire you want from a rye but without the sharp elbows.
Basically? It’s dessert with a personality. Sweet, spicy, and totally sip-worthy.
