Description

Blackened Rye The Lightning is a limited-edition Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey, expertly crafted by BLACKENED Master Distiller & Blender Rob Dietrich. This unique expression is a blend of straight rye whiskeys, predominantly 95% rye, aged between 5-8 years. What sets it apart is its double cask finishing process in Madeira and rum casks, adding layers of complexity and depth to its character. Bottled at 92 proof and non-chill filtered, it embodies the spirit of innovation and craftsmanship that defines BLACKENED whiskey.
