A world premiere with our first batch of Blended Empire Rye! This is a 2 Year Old, a release of just 623 bottles at 50% abv. In 2015, six leading New York State distilleries banded together to create a consortium dedicated to establishing a whiskey style for the Empire State. This whiskey was to be as distinctive, precisely crafted, and held to as high a standard as any of the illustrious whiskey styles in the world. Empire Rye was born–an homage to New York State’s pre-Prohibition rye whiskey-making heritage and a testament to the ingenuity and industriousness of its contemporary distillers. Each distiller’s bottling of Empire Rye is crafted in accordance with the same exacting specifications and yet each is given ample space to express their creativity. It’s aim is to make the category of Empire Rye known throughout the world. This blend consists of 9 distilleries. All of them from New York State, and all of them specifically Empire Rye. Nobody has ever blended a selection of Empire Rye before, so what an opportunity to herd nine distilleries, arguably competitors, to unite and promote their Standard of Identity! We’re very proud that we were able to get these nine distilleries to work with us, allowing us to bring you this first ever Blended Empire Rye. This flight includes a a 15ml measure of all 9 Ryes + a 30ml dram of the Empire Rye Batch 1.
