e Bottled-in-Bond release of the Bonticou Crag fullls our mission of creating spirits of historic signicance. e Bottled in Bond Act of 1897 was one of the rst consumer protection laws in the United States, and mandates (among other things) that the whisky be made, aged, and bottled by the distillery on the label. We oor malt the rye in our own malt house in the traditional manner, hand-raking daily to ensure proper aeration in the sprouting grain and then lightly kilntoasting to dry and preserve. As with all Coppersea spirits, the 100% malted rye is fermented in open-top fermenters and distilled twice in direct-red alembic stills, which imparts a richer avor. Our low-barrel proof of 105 really shines in the Bottledin-Bond expression, which is bottled at almost barrel strength and receives only a dash of water to bottle proof
TASTING NOTES
This full, exceptionally smooth rye bears aromas and notes of ginger, vanilla, honey, black pepper, charred oak and walnuts.
