Green River Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

Green River Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey hails from Owensboro, Kentucky, embodying the rich traditions of America’s whiskey heartland. Distilled with a mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley, this expression is crafted to highlight the distinct character of rye grain. Its rich auburn hue, reminiscent of polished mahogany, speaks to the depth of flavor within each bottle.

On the palate, this 95-proof rye delivers an inviting harmony of flavors. Bright notes of orange peel and fresh spearmint lead the charge, followed by a subtle touch of black pepper. These lively elements rest on a comforting base of vanilla and graham cracker, creating a profile that is both vibrant and approachable. The medium-length finish brings forth gentle rye spice, herbal tea, and whispers of soft oak, leaving a memorable impression.

Green River Rye is perfect for savoring neat or on the rocks, allowing its layers to unfold with each sip. Its smooth yet flavorful profile also makes it an excellent base for classic rye cocktails like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned, where its balance of spice and sweetness can truly shine.
