Hard Truth Sweet Mash High Road Rye Whiskey
Straight Rye Whiskey | 46.5% ABV (93 Proof) | 750 mL | Indiana | Small Batch (30 barrels) | Mash Bill: 55% Rye, 36% Corn, 9% Malted Barley
Process & Profile
Hard Truth Sweet Mash High Road Rye Whiskey is a sweet mash rye built to be smooth, flavorful, and easy to sip without losing rye character. Unlike many higher-proof ryes, High Road is intentionally bottled at a more approachable proof, making it a great “everyday rye” for customers who want spice, sweetness, and depth without heavy heat.
This is a small batch release (30 barrels) with a mash bill that balances classic rye snap with extra roundness from corn and malted barley. The result leans dessert-forward and aromatic—rich vanilla and maple notes up front, followed by baking spice and a lingering caramel-to-honey finish that stays clean and satisfying.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Apricot jam, honey, baking spice, graham cracker
Palate: Rich vanilla, maple, custard, and spice that coat the tongue
Finish: Bold, lingering caramel that fades to honey, coffee, and nougat
What Makes It Special
True sweet mash approach for a clean, grain-forward foundation
93 proof makes it easy-drinking while still tasting like real rye
30-barrel small batch for a consistent, curated profile
Mash bill balance (55% rye / 36% corn / 9% malted barley) delivers both spice and rounded sweetness
A strong “house rye” option for sipping neat, rocks pours, and cocktail builds
How to Enjoy
Sip it neat to catch the vanilla-maple-custard core, or pour over one large cube to soften the spice and pull forward more honeyed sweetness. In cocktails, it’s excellent in a rye Old Fashioned or Manhattan-style build when you want rye flavor without an overpowering proof.
