15 Stars Founder's Reserve Rye Whiskey is a limited-release blend of straight rye whiskeys from Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee, aged 14, 13, 9, and 8 years before bottling at 47.5% ABV (95 Proof). The nose opens with vanilla, honey, caramel, and floral notes, evolving into layers of old cigar box, nutmeg, raspberry dark chocolate, and black cherry.
Bright and inviting on the palate, it delivers peach, mandarin orange, caramel apple, sweet mint, and oak, leading to a long finish of cherry, apricot, licorice, tobacco, honeycomb, and lingering spice. Enjoy this premium rye whiskey neat to appreciate its depth, or with a splash of water to reveal its complex character and elegant balance.
