Del Bac Sentinel Straight Rye Whiskey 750ml

Southwestern. Spiced. A mesquite-kissed rye with desert soul.
Del Bac Sentinel Rye is a straight rye whiskey sourced from Indiana (95% rye, 5% malted barley) and finished in casks that previously held Whiskey Del Bac's signature mesquited single malt. Bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof), this small-batch release is non-chill filtered and aged for a minimum of two years in new American oak. The mesquite influence adds a delicate layer of smoke and roasted character without overpowering the rye's natural spice and fruit.
