Product Description
Sonoma Distilling California Smoked Rye Whiskey
Sonoma Distilling California Smoked Rye brings a distinctive California approach to rye through a mash bill of rye, wheat, and barley smoked in-house over cherrywood. Aged for at least four years and bottled at 93 proof, it balances spice and sweetness with dried fig, toasted almond, brandied cherry, leather, and a measured smoky accent.
