Hard Truth Dark Roast Rye

Hard Truth Master Distiller’s Reserve Dark Roast Rye brings together two specialty-malt rye mash bills in an equal blend: RW-3 Roasted Malt Rye and RW-4 Toasted Malt Rye. Produced grain-to-glass in Indiana and bottled in bond, it combines roasted malt character with the spice and structure of rye whiskey.
