Frey Ranch Single Barrel Rye is a straight rye whiskey from Frey Ranch Distillery in Nevada, made from a 100% rye mash bill and bottled at barrel strength, here 127.6 proof (63.79% ABV).
Frey Ranch is a true estate, grain-to-glass distillery: the Frey family grows its winter cereal rye on its own Nevada ranch, and every step from planting and harvesting to distilling and aging happens on the same property. A 100% single-grain rye mash bill is rare, and it shows the full expression of slow-grown rye.
This single barrel was selected with the Locked Barrel whiskey group for its Locked & Bonded program. It balances intense rye spice with rich, sweet honey and fruit notes, bold and palate-filling, with a complex interplay of citrus and deep sweetness.
Each single barrel is unique, which makes this barrel-strength selection a special gift for rye enthusiasts and bourbon drinkers alike.
Taste it neat first, then add a little water to open the spice and sweetness.
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.
