The Kings County Distillery Barrel Strength Empire Rye is a bold and high-proof rye whiskey that is part of the Empire Rye movement, which highlights New York's rich whiskey-making heritage. This expression is made from 80% New York-grown Danko rye and 20% English malted barley, aged for 3+ years in a mix of 10, 15, and 53-gallon barrels, which adds complexity to the flavor profile.
Bottled at 60.6% ABV (121 proof), this barrel-strength rye offers rich notes of dark fruit, baking spices, oak, and hints of maple syrup. The palate is full of flavors like caramel, butterscotch, chocolate, and layered spices, creating a luscious, complex drinking experience.
