CatoctinCreekRabbleRouserBottledinBondRyeWhiskey(750ml)

Sans Located in small town Purcellville, Virginia, Catoctin Creek has an outturn dominated by rye, a nod to the State’s earliest whiskey-making traditions.To celebrate their tenth anniversary, they released Rabble Rouser. It employs the same 100% rye mash bill recipe as Catoctin’s Roundstone Rye, but is distilled at a lower proof for a fuller flavour. According to the proprietors, it allows more rustic notes to emerge from the pot stills. This is also bottled in bond, which means it’s distilled in one season after four years of aging, their oldest offering to date. A sweet, soft and oily rye that barely shows its alcohol, this whiskey also defies its relative youth with a delicious melting pot of chocolate, candied fruits, caramel and toasty oak, balanced out by sprinklings of baking spice and muddled mint. If you enjoy Sazerac’s entry level offering, you should love this. 50% Alc./Vol.
