About this bottle
A straight rye whiskey from United States from Whiskey Acres Distilling Co., Whiskey Acres Distilling Co. Straight Rye Whiskey is part of the Spirit Hives whiskey selection. It is bottled at 43.5% ABV, in a 750 ml bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: The nose is soft and sweet, with hints of caramel apple and buttered popcorn; on the palate: It’s surprisingly smooth considering the high-rye mash! The first dram opens with a clover-honey glow on the back of the tongue, that fades into the flavor of dried fruit – prunes or dates; finish: A not-unpleasant mid-tongue tingle with only the slightest bitter aftertaste.

Serving & pairing
Rye’s peppery spice is the classic base for a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned. Pairs well with charcuterie and dark chocolate.
Rye versus bourbon — what is the difference?
Both are American whiskeys aged in new charred oak. Bourbon must be at least 51% corn, which gives sweetness; rye must be at least 51% rye grain, which gives pepper, spice and a drier finish. Canadian whisky is often called “rye” by tradition even when the mash bill contains little rye.
