How to EnjoyRare Character RCLR Kentucky Straight Whiskey Batch 2 2026 Release is best enjoyed neat first in a small pour so the proof, texture, and barrel character can open gradually. Let it rest in the glass before sipping, since a whiskey at this proof can reveal more sweetness and depth with a little time. A few drops of water can help widen the aromatics and soften the structure while still keeping the whiskey’s intensity intact. This is also a strong bottle for side-by-side tasting with lower-proof Rare Character releases if you want to explore how much the higher proof changes the overall experience.
