READ THE STORY
This 100 percent rye mash bill expression, though bottled at 100 proof, was initially distilled at a lower proof in order to allow the whiskey to capture “many of the extra flavors typically lost to the distillation. It is four years of age also.
Rabble Rouser is pricing around $96 per 750 ml bottle, and is available to purchase at the distillery and also at a limited number of select retailers across a range of states. You’ll find some very limited official tasting notes below, and it should be noted as well that the name Rabble Rouser refers “to a person who inflames the emotions of a crowd of people” and pays homage to “the rowdy history that rye whisky played in the state of Virginia.”
It offers a rustic flavor profile of clover honey, uncured bacon, deep earthy spice, sandalwood, white peaches, nectarines, peanuts and a hint of mesquite.
