Tasting Notes:
On the nose, this rye exudes rich fudge-filled brownies with apricot jam sweetness, underscored by earthy birch and freshly cracked black pepper.
The first sip unleashes spry vanilla and peppery arugula alongside snappy white peppercorns. As the finish lingers, sweet cherry cordials and supple leather emerge.
Blender's Story:
Nestled in the town of Rochelle, Illinois, just 4 hours north of St. Louis, resides the historic Kennay Farms Distillery. Occupying a converted 1930s movie theater that once hosted the close-knit farming community, Kennay Farms now houses their family-run distillery, brewery, and tasting room. The repurposed building echoes six generations of agricultural tradition in Illinois, dating back to the 1880s.
Captured in these bottles is some of Kennay Farms' oldest aged rye whiskey to date. By blending two remarkable 15-gallon barrels, I’ve crafted a whiskey that evokes nights filled with cherished records. Letting the music guide your evening into self-reflective meditation.
I hand-selected these barrels seeking to strike that perfect chord - like band members blending their sounds into artistic harmony. Drawn from generations of distilling expertise, this rye whiskey release is my tribute to the phenomenon of finding the right song the the right moment.
