The James E. Pepper 1776 Barrel Proof Rye is the same exact whiskey as the standard award winning 100 proof version; only this one is bottled straight from the barrel at a heady 57.3% ABV (114.6 Proof). With over 90% Rye in the Mash Bill, this full-flavoured Straight Rye Whiskey is not chill-filtered and carries notes of mint, spice, cloves, eucalyptus, chocolate and honey.
Tasting notes
Nose: Acid citrus notes with red fruit and red wine aromas. Orange peel and warming spices. Over time fresh minty rye starts to rise from the back. Adding water tones things down a bit, leaving it peppery and spicy, and adding herbal notes.
Taste: Salty licorice starts the show. Briefly turns into dry warming spices like cardamom. Dark but sweet rye bread. Drops of water add peppermint and acid notes. And tropical (burning) fruits.
Finish: Peppery and fruity. Fresh juicy rye dominates but red fruits and citrus notes are there. Long aftertaste, feel of charred oak is heavy, with hints of nutty notes. Addition of water brings out the combination of rye and toasted oak with even bigger notes.
