NY Distilling Co. has revived a long-dormant species of rye grain to produce this bold new rye whiskey, full of character.
When it comes to whiskey from New York state and New York City, rye invariably comes to mind before anything else. The Empire State has a long history of rye cultivation and the inevitable rye whiskey distillation that comes with it, the state’s climate being particularly well suited for growing the hardy rye grain.
The Jaywalk series comes in three different expressions: A “standard” straight rye at 92 proof that boasts a pretty impressive 6-8 year age statement, a bonded variant at 7 years and 100 proof, and a more limited “Heirloom Rye” variant that comes in at cask strength. All three are distilled from a mash bill of 75% New York rye, 13% New York corn and 12% malted barley, but it’s the styles of rye grain itself that really makes the series into something novel.
