Templeton Rye Whiskey
Templeton Rye is an American rye whiskey brand (commonly 4-year, 80-proof) known for its 95% rye and 5% malted barley mash bill. While inspired by prohibition-era bootlegging in Templeton, Iowa ("The Good Stuff"), the whiskey was historically sourced from MGP of Indiana before the company opened its own Iowa distillery in 2018.

Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.
Tasting Notes
Nose: An inviting aroma of rich dark chocolate, caramel, and toasted oak, complemented by subtle hints of green apple, dried apricot, and baking spices
Palate: A creamy, full-bodied blend of dark caramel and dried fruits that transitions into signature rye spice, honeyed floral notes, and deep oak tannins
Finish: Exceptionally long and warm, leaving lingering notes of butterscotch, vanilla, and a gentle rye pepper spice.
