Description
To make this one-of-a-kind spirit, Master Blender, Alan Kennedy, took our trademark Redemption Rye (95% rye, 5% malted barley mashbill) and finished it in Jamaican and Barbadian rum barrels. The result is an intriguing romance between the signature spice of Redemption Rye and the complex sweetness imparted on the rum barrels. The aging process required meticulous monitoring to achieve the perfect balance of these flavors. The resulting spirit was named “Best American Rye Whiskey” at the 2021 World Whiskies Competition.

The Birth of American Rye
The story of rye whiskey begins with America’s story. Colonists arrived in the New World with a taste for distilled alcohol and, by the late 1600s, small rye distilleries were popping up across the colonies. It was the ideal whiskey for our fledgling nation. Hardy rye grain was abundant, and its full-bodied flavor was just right for the rough-hewn pioneers who were busy founding America. In rye whiskey, they found a kindred spirit — strong, resilient, and absent of false notes — the same things we at Redemption love about rye today. As our colonies grew, so did our love for this unique spirit.
