Bulleit Rye Straight American Rye Whiskey

Bulleit Rye brings vanilla, honey and spice together with an oak-led aroma. The producer describes a crisp, clean finish with flavors that linger, giving this straight American rye a profile that pairs sweetness with spice. It’s a practical choice for a drinker who wants those flavors at the center of a pour rather than an elaborate tasting ritual.

A Manhattan is a useful starting point for putting it to work in your home bar. Try it with your preferred sweet vermouth, or compare a small neat pour with one over a large ice cube. Adjust the vermouth or dilution to suit your taste, whether you’re adding your first rye or restocking a cocktail staple.

How it’s made: Rye is the main grain in this straight American whiskey. Barrel maturation contributes to the oak character that supports its sweet and spicy profile, before the standard Bulleit Rye is bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV).
