Rock Hill Farms "Rye Recipe" High Rye Mashbill Kentucky Straight Bourbon 750ml

SKU #1052771 96-100 points Wine Enthusiast

 *Classic/Highest Recommendation* The nosing passes pick up seductive aromatic notes of toasted walnut, dried red fruits, marzipan, black pepper, spices, cocoa and marshmallow. Entry is zesty, fruity, candied and almost Sherry-like; the midpalate bursts with flavors of cocoa, dark chocolate, chocolate covered almond, coffee, tobacco and dark caramel. Ends smooth, silky, toffee sweet and honeyed. Wow.  (12/ 2008)

K&L Notes

This is what Buffalo Trace refers to as their "Rye Recipe" Bourbon. It is not a Straight Rye Whiskey, but instead a Straight Bourbon Whiskey with a larger proportion of rye grain then usual. Basically, a rye-heavy mashbill rather than a corn-heavy mashbill. It is still more than 51% corn and therefore is technically still a Bourbon and not a Rye. Please do not confuse this product with a Straight Rye Whiskey! (David Othenin-Girard, K&L Spirits Buyer)

United States

- When people consider domestic wine, they normally think about the state of California. The fine viticultural Region within California, including the Napa Valley, Sonoma, Santa Cruz Mountains, Mendocino and Santa Barbara, are capable of growing grapes of world-class quality. But there's plenty of fabulous wine coming from other states, too. Oregon, Washington and New York are also causing eyebrows (and glassware) to be raised around the world.
