A true American stalwart, Rittenhouse Straight Rye Whisky is a Bottled in Bond expression that delivers on its promise of robust flavor and unwavering quality. Its fiery rye character is perfectly tempered by sweet caramel and vanilla, making it an indispensable choice for classic cocktails or a contemplative neat pour.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A distinct and assertive rye spice immediately greets the nose, alongside vibrant notes of orange peel, black pepper, and spearmint. Underneath, a subtle sweetness of burnt caramel and dried apricot emerges, with a hint of toasted oak.

Palate: The palate is robust and full-bodied, delivering a powerful surge of baking spices – cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg upfront. This is quickly balanced by sweet vanilla, dark cherry, and a deep fruitiness, leading into a classic rye spiciness that tingles the tongue, accompanied by a pleasant warmth.

Finish: The finish is long, warm, and spicy, with lingering notes of cracked black pepper and a touch of menthol. A dry oakiness and a gentle sweetness of treacle develop, leaving a satisfying and memorable impression.
