{"product_id":"1792-kentucky-straight-rye-whiskey-100-proof","title":"1792 Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey","description":"\u003cp\u003e1792 Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey is a 100-proof straight rye from Barton 1792 Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky, marking the brand's first-ever rye release. It's crafted from rye grain sourced across three regions — Canada, Europe, and the northern United States — then fermented with 1792's signature bourbon yeast for a spicy yet fruit-forward profile that's distinct from typical high-rye whiskeys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBarton 1792 Distillery has built its reputation on bourbon, but this rye shows the same attention to detail the brand is known for. Master Distiller Ross Cornelissen took an unusual approach, blending rye from three different growing regions and fermenting with the house bourbon yeast instead of a neutral strain, giving this whiskey a layered character that stands apart from the pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm baking spice, toasted rye bread, light florals, and a touch of orchard fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peppery rye spice, brown sugar sweetness, vanilla and oak, with a subtle herbal note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium-length finish with lingering cinnamon spice, oak char, and a soft fruity sweetness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpirit Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKentucky Straight Rye Whiskey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eABV\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50% (100 proof)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDistillery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBarton 1792 Distillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBardstown, Kentucky\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 100-proof rye is a great fit for weeknight sipping when you want something with a bit more spice than your usual bourbon.
