Redwood Empire Emerald Giant Rye 750ml
Product Description
This rare whiskey was bottled under the strict tenents of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. Aged in the temperate climate of the Northern California coast, the original distillate was altered only by the addition of pure water from the Russian River Valley aquifer. This is the purest expression of Redwood Empire’s craft.
Aromas of sandalwood, clove, parsnip, and dry leaves. On the palate, black pepper, coffee grounds, leather, and rich malt.

Expert Reviews
Following aromas of brown-sugared peach, baked apple, and a hint of pekoe tea, the liquid spreads a warm blanket of papaya, cashew, and peach cobbler on the tongue before a finish of vanilla bean and tobacco leaf. 100 proof
Look for a concentrated crème brûlée aroma but a lighter flavor profile, mixing caramel, toasted brown sugar and a plummy note. There’s just enough toasty spice to keep it warming and lively, shot through with nutmeg, ginger and allspice. This is an 87% rye whiskey with small measures of barley and wheat, aged for five years and bottled in bond.
