Overview

More Info

Redemption borrowed a trick from winemaking for this one. After distilling their 95% rye, pre-Prohibition-style mash bill at an Indiana distillery, they return whiskey lees — the flavorful backset left from fermentation — into the barrel and rotate it through aging, echoing the French sur lie method. Non-chill filtered at 94 proof, it opens floral and nutty, turns round and buttery with a savory edge, then finishes on pie crust, vanilla and dried fig. Best sipped neat to catch the full arc.
Tasting notes

Nose: Floral upfront with a lovely nutty, woody back drop. Evokes deep fruit notes of dried mango, bergamot orange, and honey baked apples.

Palate: Round, rich and soft with decadent nutty and buttery notes that envelop the palate. Supporting notes of toasted marshmallow, maple, and nutmeg, balanced with Redemption Rye’s signature undertones of fennel and caraway.

Finish: A lingering, balanced finish that coats the palate. Spice fades into a hint of sweetness with warming flavors of­ pie crust, sweet pine, buttered popcorn, vanilla and dried fig.

★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ 3/5 AI Rating

Redemption's Sur Lee expression takes an unusual winemaking technique — resting the spirit on the yeast lees — and applies it to straight rye whiskey, resulting in a creamier, more textured mouthfeel than standard rye. Enthusiasts of experimental American whiskey appreciate the concept and the way it softens rye's naturally assertive spice with added complexity. It is an interesting and conversation-worthy bottle for fans of both rye whiskey and creative production methods.
