FUN FACTS

• Five Wood Rye Whiskey is our salute to the working men and women who work hard – in factories, hospitals, restaurants, bars, distilleries, breweries, wineries, offices, and all the various service industries.
• Rye whiskey was the whiskey of the American colonies. George Washington distilled rye whiskey at Mount Vernon. In time, bourbon became the best selling American whiskey with rye being number two.  Today, rye whiskey is growing rapidly.  
• Because rye is such a big flavor, we decided to go even bigger, finishing it with five woods:  American oak, European oak, maple wood, cherry wood and 200 year oak.
• A “sister” product of Five Wood Rye Whiskey that we also produce, Noble Oak Rye, received an earth shattering 97 point rating and selection one of the top 100 spirits in the Ultimate Spirits Challenge.  
• Five Wood Rye Whiskey is crafted from 95% rye.  

TASTING NOTES

Dried cherry, currant and honey on the nose carry throughout, along with a cardamon, black pepper, vanilla, cherry cola and honey create a complex finish.
