Roundstone Rye is an incredibly unique rye whisky, made completely from scratch at the Catoctin Creek distillery in Purcellville, Virginia. All Catoctin Creek’s whiskies are made from 100% rye which is locally sourced and certified organic. The word Catoctin is derived from the Native American tribal name Kittocton, which translates roughly to mean “place of many deer.” Called their “Distiller’s Edition”, the top 10% of the distillery’s barrels are selected for this expression. It’s distilled in a copper pot still, and aged for at least two years in new American oak barrels treated with a #3 char. Butterscotch and maple sweetness caress the palate, while pepper and spice provide special notes. Some impressively lifting leather and oak. An amazingly oily texture lasts for the whole experience. Deep, rich, and earthy.
