In summer 2018, Dave Pickerell returned to our warehouses to realize his dream of creating the best aged rye whiskey for your cocktail - 100% rye for full spice flavors, aged six years for unprecedented complexity, and bottled at his ideal strength. Stir or shake in good company. A fresh cinnamon, black peppercorn, a hint of tangerine and grapefruit zest nose. Powerfully spicy, with cocoa, cardamom and cured leather flavors. A wonderfully lengthy, with baking spices, vanilla and hints of citrus finish.

A honey hue and rich vanilla aroma mark this six-year-old rye whiskey. The palate nods to its 100% rye grain mash bill, opening with brisk cinnamon and allspice sparks that round into mellower vanilla and caramel midpalate, finishing long and spiced. Adding water brings more vanilla to the fore and adds a toasted grain note to the finish.
