Redwood Empire Rocket Top Bottled-in-Bond Rye Whiskey
This rare bonded rye whiskey was bottled under the strict tenets 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 bonded whiskey is the purest expression of Redwood Empire’s craft.
