Our friends at Dark Corner Distillery are making history in South Carolina with the release of their first ever straight rye whiskey. Here are the details from their press release:
Dark Corner Distillery continues to live up to their reputation as pioneers of the craft distilled spirits movement in the Palmetto State. This Friday, July the 25th at 11:00am, guests of the distillery will have the opportunity to purchase a bottle of Dark Corner’s most esteemed release to date; Carolina Straight Rye Whiskey. “It’s extremely limited (only 115 bottles), aged for over 2 years, and will be a welcomed first for South Carolina” says distillery founder, Joe Fenten.
"Notes of porridge, dried fruit, rice pudding and honeyed tobacco waft the air, followed by a welcomed dose of salt & pepper, coconut and vanilla toffee on the palate. A deep, bold rye whiskey that's sure to delight any true whiskey aficionado” notes Head Distiller, Paul Fulmer.
