13th Colony Barrel Proof Rye
Appearance / Color
Copper
Nose / Aroma / Smell
Mint, brown sugar, cocoa, dill, dark fruit, and toasted oak.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
Bold rye spice with caramel, orange oil, herbal tea, and a dark chocolate undertone.
Finish
Long and spicy with mint, oak tannin, and a drying peppery edge.
13th Colony's barrel-proof rye is one of the more talked-about newer southern ryes because it keeps a classic 95/5 rye backbone but adds real maturity and density. It should feel familiar on paper and a little richer than expected in the glass.
