Catoctin Creek Barrel Select - Cask 2625 is a single-cask rye bottled at a robust 57.5% ABV. Rye whisky is generally known for a drier, spicier style than many bourbons, often showing peppery grain character alongside oak sweetness.
As a single-cask release, it reflects the character of one individual barrel rather than a wider batch. The high strength can make it feel more intense and concentrated, so some drinkers may prefer to add a little water to open it up.
