Vermont, USA
Note: picture may not be accurate..
Had a chance to taste this 10 year aged single barrel Rye at work and let me tell ya..unique and friggin delicious. A Rye that is aged 10 years in a repurposed bourbon barrel, giving it corn mash like feel, and vanilla caramel notes, still with that characteristic Rye fire and spice, and this single barrel is the first cask strength they've done, rounding up at 117 proof! For that ABV, it is incredibly smooth, and the finish sticks around for like 5 minutes.
