Cedar Ridge RYE WHISKEY is a characterful American rye whisky, bottled at 43 per cent in a 0.7-litre bottle, which is distinguished by the unusual composition of its mash bill. This consists of 85 per cent rye, 12 per cent maize and 3 per cent malted barley. A distinctive feature of Cedar Ridge Whiskey is the use of malted rye, whereas many other rye whiskies are made predominantly from unmalted rye. For malting, the grain is first soaked in water and allowed to germinate before the process is completed using hot air. This creates natural enzymes that aid the subsequent mashing process. At the same time, the malted rye contributes to a more robust structure and additional grain nuances.


Cedar Ridge Whiskey thus combines the high rye content of a classic rye with a distinctive production approach. In particular, the 85% rye mash bill ensures the distinctive grain and spice character, whilst maize and malted barley complement the recipe. The use of malted rye also brings hints of toast and baked goods to the profile. With its combination of fruity, spicy and woody notes, this rye whisky from the USA is an interesting alternative both for drinking neat and for classic whisky cocktails.
