Process & Profile

FEW Bottled In Bond Rye Whiskey follows the U.S. Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. It is distilled in one season at the FEW distillery, aged for at least four years in new charred American oak barrels, stored in a federally bonded warehouse, and finally bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV). The mash bill is heavily rye-forward at 70%, with corn and malted barley rounding out the grain recipe.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Bold spice up front with black cherry, vanilla, stone fruit, and a hint of oak smoke

• Palate: Spicy rye character with marzipan undertones, fruit flavors like black cherry, layers of vanilla and oak, with stone fruit sweetness

• Finish: Long and warming, spicy rye lingering, oak smoke, vanilla, and fruit fade gracefully

What Makes It Special

• Fully compliant with Bottled-in-Bond law, which ensures quality and provenance

• Strong rye content gives it a bold, spicy backbone that rye lovers appreciate

• Aged long enough (4 years) to meld wood influence with grainy, fruity complexity

• Bottled at 100 proof to deliver robust flavor without dilution

How to Enjoy

Best served neat or with a few drops of water to open its aromatics. A large ice cube can temper the heat. Also excels in classic rye cocktails like the Manhattan or Sazerac, where its spice and fruit profile can stand up to bitters and sweetness.
