Barber Lee Single Malt Rye Whiskey

Barber Lee Single Malt Rye is a rare thing: a whiskey made from 100% malted rye at a single distillery, Barber Lee Spirits in Petaluma, California. Most distillers avoid heavy malted rye because it turns into a thick, sticky mess in the mash tun; Barber Lee does it the hard way, then ages the spirit in new, heavy-char American oak and bottles it at 45% ABV (90 proof).

The Whiskey Wash scored it 9 out of 10, calling it "alive and vivacious," with an orangey-red color, stone fruit like nectarine and peach, freshly toasted rye bread, cinnamon-roll spread and toasted sesame on the nose, and a palate that starts sweet and finishes warm and spicy without harshness. It is a distinctly rye-forward, one-of-a-kind American whiskey that makes a superb Manhattan and is worth sipping neat.
