James E Pepper 1776 Rye Whiskey

James E Pepper 1776 Rye Whiskey is made from a blend of hand-selected barrels that are nearly identical to the whiskey that Pepper produced himself. The mash, which is comprised over 90% rye (the remainder is malted barley), is distilled and aged for a minimum of 3 years before being bottled. The high-rye mash bill and non-chill filtration result in a whiskey that is noticeably spicy, with notes of cinnamon, cloves and dark chocolate, but finishes with a touch of sweetness.

Tasting Notes: Orange zest, heavy rye bread and subtle oak influence. Finish is long and very spicy.

750ml, 50% ABV
