Riverset Straight Rye Whiskey

The distillery ages their barrels along the winding bluffs of the Mississippi River in Memphis, Tennessee. The Delta heat and humidity provided by the long, hot summers cook those barrels low and slow like proper Memphis BBQ. This forces the whiskey deep into the oak, creating an unmistakably rich flavor.

• MASH BILL – 95% rye, 5% barley
• PROOF – 93
• AGE – 4 years

COLOR – an almost cool pale amber with gold highlights
NOSE – dill, floral rye, crisp flatbread crackers with rosemary, fresh cracked black pepper, a light plumb-like fruitiness wafting in the background
TASTE – sparkly like sunlight on water, the dill with other herbs mixed in, fresh peaches, creamy and rich but relaxed
FINISH – light and creamy caramel, dill, a nice peppery tingle alongside a return of the fresh cracked black pepper, those plumb notes wafting back in, all lingering for a surprisingly long time given the proof
