Alley 6 Rye Whiskey 750 ml

Alley 6 Rye Whiskey comes from Alley 6 Craft Distillery, a small operation in Healdsburg, California, in the heart of Sonoma wine country. The distillery mills and mashes its own grain on site rather than sourcing bulk spirit, which gives the whiskey a grain-forward, slightly rustic character next to the bigger Midwest rye brands. Expect peppery rye spice, a grassy or herbal edge from the fresh-milled grain, and a dry finish. It's a whiskey for drinkers curious about small California distilling rather than another Kentucky or Indiana rye.

How to drink Alley 6 Rye Whiskey

Its spice and grain-forward character make it a solid Sazerac or Manhattan base, and it holds up fine over a single cube.
