Detailed DescriptionBulleit Straight Rye Mash Whiskey is a “High Rye Whiskey” is to understate things considerably. It is, in fact, 95% rye and 5% malted barley grain. There are very few higher rye concentrations than that. And just like with Bulleit’s famous Bourbon, they follow the family tradition of using a special, proprietary strain of yeast to keep with the unique character of their products.Bulleit 95 Rye Straight American Rye Whiskey | 1.75L Tasting NotesNose: Black cherry, clove, and tobacco.Palate: Pumpernickel toast, brown butter, citrus zest, cinnamon, oak, black pepper, and butterscotch.Finish: Warm with fresh spice and vanilla.Distillery InformationIn 1987, Thomas E. Bulleit, Jr., fulfilled a lifelong dream of reviving an old family bourbon recipe by starting the Bulleit Distilling Company. Inspired by his great-great-grandfather Augustus Bulleit, who made a high-rye whiskey between 1830-1860, Tom left a successful law practice and risked everything to experience life on the frontier. Today, we’re not the only ones who are glad he did.
