What it is
Rye whiskey: the spicy, drier American whiskey — distilled from at least 51% rye, it ruled the early Republic and powered the Manhattan and the Old Fashioned before Prohibition nearly killed it. Origins: Scots-Irish settlers in Pennsylvania and Maryland distilled their rye grain from the 1700s; George Washington ran a rye distillery at Mount Vernon. Made from: a mash of at least 51% rye with corn and malted barley. How it's made: 1) Ferment the mash. 2) Distil. 3) Age in new charred oak at least 2 years for 'straight' rye. Served: neat, or in Manhattans and Sazeracs. Flavor: baking spice, pepper, dried fruit — leaner than bourbon. Strength: 40-50%. Culture: the craft-cocktail revival rescued rye from near-extinction; it is booming again. See also: Bourbon, Old Fashioned.
