Unlike bourbon, rye whiskey can be made in any country, but, like bourbon, U.S. rye whiskey also comes with specific requirements. For a U.S. whiskey to be considered rye whiskey, it must be made with at least 51% rye, a wheat-like grass used to make some beers and vodkas. Otherwise, the ingredients list and distilling processes are nearly identical to those used for bourbon.

Rye is generally spicier than bourbon, with a distinct taste that, once you learn to recognize it, you’ll always recognize it. Limestone Branch Distillery’s Minor Case Straight Rye Whiskey was created in honor of M.C. Beam, whose distilling career was cut short by Prohibition. Minor Case Rye Whiskey features earthy and sweet notes with hints of butterscotch and dried fruit.
