Chattanooga Whiskey 99 Rye: Tennessee Rye Malt
Tennessee Rye Malt is a rich, malt-forward approach to rye. Inspired by one of the Experimental Distillery’s first batches of whiskey, Chattanooga Whiskey's version of this rare and flavorful style was made from an abundance of slow toasted and drum roasted rye malt. The result is a bold reinvention of rye, brimming with sweet and savory notes of candied fruit, herbs, and spice.
