Redemption Rye American Rye Whiskey 70 cl 46%

The rye that started it all — the whiskey that gave the brand its name.

Expert description

Redemption Rye American Rye Whiskey is the brand's foundational expression, discovered as a stock of rye whiskey barrels that inspired the brand's name, bottled at 46%. Redemption was founded in 2010 by Dave Schmier and Michael Kanbar, after they serendipitously discovered a cache of rye whiskey barrels they believed to be the perfect expression of the classic American spirit. The whiskey is distilled at the historic MGP distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, and then trucked to a bottling facility in Bardstown, Kentucky, where each batch and bottle is hand-numbered on the label.
