Bulleit Rye Whiskey

$75.00

Overview

Bulleit Rye is the high-rye sibling to the classic Bulleit Bourbon, and it's a serious bit of kit. A 95% rye mash bill makes it bold, spicy, and full of character. It's smooth enough to sip neat but built to stand up in a cocktail. If you're a fan of an Old Fashioned, Manhattan, or Sazerac, this is the bottle you want on the shelf. A solid step up for anyone moving past sweeter bourbons.
