Ryes of the Robots is a small-batch straight rye whiskey from Filmland Spirits, the brand that dresses its whiskeys as B-movie posters. Its tagline: serve the drinks, save the world. It is bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV).
The rye is made from a mash of 95% rye and 5% malted barley, distilled in Indiana, aged in American white oak and produced on location in Kentucky. That high-rye recipe gives a complex, spicy whiskey.
Expect cinnamon and clove on the nose, mint and pepper on the tongue, and a long, chocolatey finish with hints of oak, smooth enough to amaze robots and humans alike.
With its retro sci-fi poster label, it is a fun gift for film buffs and rye lovers, equally good neat, on the rocks or in a cocktail.
American rye whiskey is made from a mash of at least 51% rye and aged in new charred oak, giving it a spicier, drier character than bourbon, with notes of pepper, herbs and baking spice.
