A Distinctive Approach to Rye Whiskey
Cedar Ridge Straight Rye Whiskey stands apart from other rye whiskeys with its innovative use of malted rye. The malting process, involving germination followed by a burst of hot air, not only enhances the mashing process but also imparts unique weight and complexity to the whiskey. This results in a distinctive profile featuring notes of toast and biscuit that elevate the traditional rye whiskey experience.
