Devils River Rye Whiskey is an American rye whiskey, a style made with a grain recipe led by rye. For new drinkers, rye often tastes drier and spicier than bourbon, with more peppery and herbal character.
This bottle is a good introduction to that style, showing the firm grain spice and oak influence that rye fans look for. Expect a bolder, more savory profile than a typical sweet corn-forward whiskey.
