HENRY WINE GROUP® Rieger’s Kansas City Whiskey (750ml) – 6045207494815

About the Whiskey:
Our Kansas City Whiskey is a blend of Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Light Corn Whiskey, and Straight Rye Whiskey, all aged at least 4 years, as well as a small amount of 15 year old Oloroso Sherry from the Williams & Humbert Bodega in Jerez. Bottled at 92 proof, Kansas City Whiskey is well-balanced, smooth, and slightly sweet. It’s beautiful when served neat or on the rocks, but also works well in classic Bourbon – or Rye-based cocktails such as the Horsefeather, Manhattan and Old Fashioned.

Tasting Notes:
On the nose the first thing to hit is the sherry. Rich, sweet, caramel, butterscotch aromas are followed by a corn whiskey backbone. The flavor of sweet corn whiskey is followed up with a touch of sweetness from the sherry featuring dried fruits, almonds, and bitter chocolate. The finish provides a heavy dose of robust spiciness from the Rye. At 92 proof the alcohol is able to balance out the slight sweetness from the sherry and make the whiskey very balanced.
