Redemption Rum Cask Finish is a Straight Rye Whiskey finished in plantation Caribbean rum casks and bottled at 94 proof. Redemption Whiskey is carefully hand-crafted in the river town of Lawrenceburg, Indiana at the 172-year-old MGP Distillery – Whisky Advocate's 2015 Distiller of the Year.
The whiskey is aged for a minimum of two years and typically four or more years before it can be bottled. Straight rye whiskey will be aged for at least two years and won't contain any other spirits, but there are other options out there as well, like “bottled-in-bond.”
In the United States, rye whiskey is, by law, made from a mash of at least 51 percent rye. (The other ingredients in the mash are usually corn and malted barley.) It is distilled to no more than 160 U.S. proof (80% abv) and aged in charred, new oak barrels.
Whiskey is a distilled alcoholic beverage made of fermented grains. Different grains are used, including barley, corn, rye, and wheat and all result in a different flavor or kind of whiskey. Whiskeys are also aged in wooden casks, which are sometimes new or sometimes used casks from other alcohol aging.
