ROSSVILLE UNION MASTER CRAFTED STRAIGHT RYE WHISKEY 47% 750ML

ROSSVILLE UNION MASTER CRAFTED STRAIGHT RYE WHISKEY 47% 750ML

Midwest Grain Products of Indiana (aka MGP) are responsible for a large number of American whiskeys, providing high quality bourbon and rye to brands for years, but never releasing a label of their own. That changed in 2015 when they purchased the George Remus Bourbon brand and more recently launched a rye under the Rossville Union name. The entry level rye is a blend of 51% and 95% rye mashbills made from whiskies aged 5-6 years.

Tasting Note

Brilliant deep gold. Pepper and varnish in the opening passes before this finds better ground; toasted rye, apple tart, peppermint rock lollies and fresh cut cedar emerge. A full bodied, medium-sweet whiskey with lively rye and grilled corn flavours dovetailing into a richer, more oily finish. Gentle spice and mint chocolate mingle with the wood. The aftertaste is tangy, chewy and textural. Solid. 47% Alc./Vol.
