Wilderness Trails Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskeys is offered as a Cask Strength release. Once their traditional sweet mash process is distilled in the column stills they enter the barrel at the lowest entry proof they know of in Kentucky. They barrel at 100 proof and 105 proof to highlight the balance of the distillate and alternate solubility expression to be had from the barrel at a lower proof. They also barreled at a gradient of proofs between 100 and 120 proof for the first few years before settling into 100 and 105 proof. This is the reason you will find releases of our cask strength Rye varying in proof.Proof: Varies
