Freedom Moonshine White Rye

Many moonshine products are centered around corn but Freedom Moonshine mixes it up with a mashbill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley. Yeasty rye bread defines the nose with an undercurrent of white grape. The entry is soft with yeasty rye vanilla and bran flakes. There’s some structure in the mid-palate with rye spice and black pepper but it needs more. The finish is a little flat all pointing to the need for a slightly higher proof.
