Rye Malt Whisky (basic recipe)
Recipe Impression
Featuring round, rich notes of tobacco, charred oak and butterscotch with a spicy rye kick and peppery heat, rye whisky is rounded out by the smoothness of maple and sweet cherry to provide a weighty and balanced, yet complex, flavor profile.
It’s solidly anchored in rye spiciness with a bit of apple and honey. Rye whiskey gives both spiciness and fruity flavors like plum and marmalade.
Rye whiskey best to be aged for 10 years in oak barrels. That oak aging mellows the rye bite with vanilla notes, and the utter absence of corn still makes this a distinct, and tasty, drink.
