L. Lyons Brown III and Kevin E. Sachs, two former Brown-Forman senior executives, with the goal of presenting ultra-premium whiskeys that honor traditional methods. The brand is transparent about every detail. This rye is made from a mash of 95% rye and 5% malted rye, which begins with New Riff's limestone-rich aquifer water drawn from 100 feet below the distillery. It is distilled through an all-copper column still and doubler and aged five years in new toasted and charred American white oak barrels. Because it is non-chill filtered, some cloudiness may occur.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe palate is full and layered with bold character: a delicate sweetness of caramel and honey evolves quickly into rye spice, with cinnamon, peppercorns and a touch of chili pepper heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe red and gold crest label makes it a striking gift for rye lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmerican 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStraight rye must be aged at least two years in new charred oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA splash of water softens the spice and brings out the honey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt makes a classic Sazerac with absinthe and Peychaud's bitters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA large ice cube is perfect for slow sipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair it with smoked meats to echo its spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a great bottle for rye fans who value transparency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEntry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel and honey sweetness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cinnamon, peppercorn, rye spice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e A touch of chili pepper heat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e High N' Wicked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e New Riff Distilling, Newport, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky straight rye, non-chill filtered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMash Bill:\u003c\/strong\u003e 95% rye, 5% malted rye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStills:\u003c\/strong\u003e All-copper column and doubler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90 proof (45% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or with a splash of water, or stir a Manhattan or Sazerac.
