7-Year New York Rye Finished in a Used Honey Spirit Barrel Featuring Finger Lakes Distilling

Distilled from all the grains. Oat, spelt, malted rye...oh my! A lower entry proof (100) and a honey spirit finish gives this Finger Lakes Rye some sweet old school vibes. Funky rye spice, raw honey, and a caramelized pear walk into a whiskey bar… In the middle of NY wine country sits one of the finest craft distilleries in the US – Finger Lakes Distilling. With a deep library of top-shelf whiskeys at hand, there was zero chance we could walk away with just one barrel – so we chose 3 (you’re welcome!). This 7-year 5-grain rye whiskey (rye, spelt, malted barley, oat, malted rye) was already a standout, but we decided to up the sweetness a bit with a quick honey spirit finish. The final result is a funky-sweet rye that somehow manages to be both bold and insanely crushable. Cheers to you and yours! Tasting Notes: Funky baking spices, raw honey, caramelized pear, french vanilla, rich oak with a touch of orange spice. The Nerdy Bits: Mash Bill: 68% Rye, 19% Spelt, 8% Ma
