Cooperstown Select Straight Rye Whiskey

Cooperstown Select Straight Rye Whiskey is a small-batch rye from Cooperstown Distillery in Cooperstown, New York, made from rye and other grains grown entirely in New York State. It spends two to three years ageing, starting in new American oak barrels before being finished in used Cabernet Sauvignon barrels, and the label carries a two-year age statement. The distillery bottles it at cask strength, 102 proof (51% ABV), in a 750ml bottle, and describes it as a highly complex rye. Its awards include Best in Class at the Alberta Beverage Awards and 96 points from The Tasting Panel.

Serve: Neat, with a splash of water, or in a Sazerac.
