Blue Run Kentucky Straight High Rye Bourbon is a bourbon made with a mashbill that includes a relatively higher proportion of rye than many traditional bourbons. In practice, that usually means a profile that combines classic bourbon sweetness with a firmer, livelier spice character.
At 55.5% ABV, this is a full-strength whiskey, so it is likely to taste more concentrated and warming than standard bottlings. For a novice drinker, expect a bold style where sweetness from corn and notes often associated with oak maturation can sit alongside extra peppery or baking-spice lift from the rye.
