Shortbarrel Rye 101 Straight Rye Whiskey 101 Proof

Baking spice and citrus give this straight rye whiskey a bright, lively opening. Caramel brings sweetness without obscuring the grain-driven character, while oak adds a firmer edge. Shortbarrel Rye 101 is bottled at 101 proof (50.5% ABV), giving those flavors plenty of presence and definition.

Vanilla and crème brûlée round out the profile, balancing rye spice with a dessert-like richness. The result is approachable but not lightweight: sweet enough to enjoy easily, with enough spice and oak to keep each sip focused. This 750 mL rye can be poured neat when you want its full intensity, or served over ice to soften the proof. It also has the strength to remain expressive in a classic whiskey cocktail, where its citrus, caramel, and spice notes can stay distinct.
