10% off (Sale price $23.40, Reg. Price $26.00) :: Big things truly come in small packages! This super smooth rye whiskey is mildly spicy and woodsy, yet has a softness with hints of toasted, salted caramel and refreshing anise. The distillery (founded in 2011 in a former 19th-Century coal yard!) is the first legal distillery since Prohibition. It features a 600-liter still, and a lean team of six that operates and bottles nearly all week. Now that’s dedication! Fun fact: Co-founder John Curtain let us know that the name of this rye, “Ironweed,” comes from the 1983 novel title (which takes place in Albany!), that was later adapted into a film featuring Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep. That deserves an award! TIP OF THE TONGUE This rye is our go-to choice for any brown liquor-based cocktails, from Manhattans to Old Fashioneds. It’s perfect for creating a top-shelf minibar…or as a gift for the artisanal rye whiskey connoisseur in your life.
