J. Rieger & Co. - Bottled in Bond Straight Rye Whiskey
Our master distiller Nathan Perry worked with mentor Dave Pickerell, a legend in the whiskey industry, to create this special rye. Our Straight Rye Whiskey Bottled in Bond is held to rigorous standards. We use only the finest grains available to create the 96% rye, 4% barley mash bill. We then age it for six years in our historic Kansas City rickhouse, resulting in an exemplary whiskey with complex aromas and rich flavors. It's a delicious rye for you to enjoy and a fitting tribute to our friend Dave.
Aromas of caramelized orange and fresh baked bread. Flowery notes of orange blossom and cut grass. Flavors of toasted cedar, five spice, salty sunflower seeds and cinnamon. Mid-palate is rich with chocolate-covered cherries, buttered popcorn, and a lingering spicy fruit-jam character. A cherry-cola like quality. A long finish with drier notes of sage, mint, and a little toasted coconut. Extremely balanced and pleasant to revisit with each sip.
