Tasting Notes: Dark ripe cherries and ripe plums on the nose. A sweet vanilla note comes in and makes you think you’re not drinking a rye. The palate brings some more notes reminiscent of a rye. There’s black tea, leather, light baking spice. There’s a drier dark chocolate note on the back of the palate. The finish is oak and orange peel.
The identity of Stellum Rye is rooted in a tried and true 95% Rye Indiana mash bill. To enhance this classic style, we incorporate small amounts more barley-forward rye and choice barrels from both Kentucky and Tennessee. This brings a full, round mouthfeel and flashes of buttery sweetness to an otherwise spicy and tightly focused Rye Whiskey.
