Blue Run Spirits Emerald Rye Whiskey Single Barrel | Mother's Day Release

#bourbon #whiskey #whiskeytube Blue Run Emerald Single Barrel Rye will be available only online at BlueRunSpirits.com beginning at 3 p.m. EST on Tuesday. The single-barrel release is a follow-up on Blue Run Emerald Rye, which launched in November as the brand’s first barrel-proof rye. Like the original Emerald Rye, Emerald Single Barrel Rye was contract-distilled by Blue Run Liquid Advisor Jim Rutledge at Castle & Key Distillery, blended by Shaylyn Gammon and is presented at barrel proof. “With Blue Run’s Emerald Rye Whiskies, I am trying to work towards a baseline flavor foundation for the entire collection, then find interesting or unexpected interpretations that are wholly unique but don’t stray too far from the original profile,” Gammon said in a news release. “This might be somewhat easier when blending, but when you are working with single barrels at barrel proof, the art lies in the barrel selection, understanding how the distillate interacted with the barrel char level, and to the extent I can, what climate factors impacted that barrel as it aged over the years.” In an ode to Mother’s Day, each of the single barrels from this collection is named after a mother in the lives of Blue Run Spirits founders. Blue Run Kentucky Straight Emerald Single Barrel Rye Whiskey is available for a suggested retail price of $199.99.
