Better Man Distilling Grand Optimist Rye Whiskey

Better Man Distilling Grand Optimist Rye Whiskey

USA > New York

Grand Optimist Rye Whiskey is crafted by The Better Man Distilling Co. in Patchogue, New York, using New York-grown Danko Rye to highlight the cereal and bready notes characteristic of heritage rye grains. This rye whiskey is designed to be versatile, suitable for enjoying neat or as a robust base for classic cocktails like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned.

On the nose, it presents aromas of cherry liqueur, spicy rye, and toasted sawdust. The palate opens with bright, sharp rye notes that evolve into flavors of cooked oats, hazelnut, cocoa, baking spices, and a fresh minerality, a nuance attributed to the barrels' proximity to the ocean during aging.
