“100% organic Virginia rye — pot-distilled Roundstone at easy 80 proof”
Tasting notes
- nose
- woody caramel, rich butter toffee, lemon zest, and soft cereal rye
- palate
- smooth, full-bodied Virginia rye — fruity-nutty grain, caramel oak, and gentle spice without heat
- finish
- lingering toffee, lemon peel, and clean organic rye
Mash bill
- Organic rye100%
100% organic rye (locally sourced when available) — no corn, no barley. Pre-Prohibition Virginia rye style where the legal minimum is left far behind; organic certification and pot-still texture are the mash pitch, not a corn-sweetened cocktail rye.
- Cask
- New charred white oak (often ~30-gallon noted on higher-proof variants)
