Redemption Whiskey is carefully hand-crafted in the river town of Lawrenceburg, Indiana at the 172-year-old MGP Distillery – Whisky Advocate’s 2015 Distillery of the Year. The distinctiveness of Redemption comes from the attention to detail during the aging and batching process which is all done to taste, insuring consistency bottle to bottle. Each bottle of Redemption Whiskey is hand numbered to reflect the batch and bottle, a sign of the attention to detail put into making the final product. While Redemption is perfect to enjoy neat or on the rocks, it also serves as an excellent base when used in both classic and modern cocktails. Its bold, spicy notes shine through any cocktail without overpowering the drink. A rye content of 95%, well past the 51% required for the category, allows the whiskey to gain significant flavour in new charred oak barrels with less aging (a minimum of 2 years). It shows beautiful flavored rye spice with light floral and citrus notes. Slight mint finish makes this great for sipping or mixing in a classic cocktail (think Manhattan, Old Fashioned and Sazerac).
