About 10Th Mountain Rye
10th Mountain Rye Whiskey is a craft rye from 10th Mountain Whiskey and Spirit Company in Colorado, featuring a mash bill of 69% rye, 27% corn, and 4% malted barley, bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof) in 750ml for around $38.51. What makes it special is its unique profile—using Rocky Mountain water and high-quality grains—aged in new charred oak barrels, delivering an atypical nose with malt, strawberry, and green apple notes that evoke Scotch more than traditional rye spice. Multiple awards like Double Gold at Global Spirits and New York International Spirits Competitions, plus Jim Murray’s 94 points, highlight its quality. Ideal for rye enthusiasts seeking smooth, balanced sipping whiskey neat, on rocks, or in cocktails like Manhattans, it punches above its price in the craft rye category, offering complexity rivaling pricier options while remaining accessible and versatile.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Aromas blend oak, dark fruit, light caramel, and a hint of cinnamon for a balanced, inviting scent. Unique malt notes reminiscent of Scotch mingle with fresh strawberries, green apple, and honey, defying typical rye expectations. Subtle acetone-like sweetness and dusty wood add vibrancy and depth.
👅 Palate
Smooth creaminess opens to warm butterscotch, tart green apples, rye spice, mint, and milk chocolate evoking Thin Mints. Full-bodied with spicy cinnamon, toffee, caramel, and dried fruits, it offers silky malty goodness and layered warmth. Despite youth, it tastes older, remarkably smooth and sweet without harshness.
✨ Finish
Short, light, and dry with lingering oak, sharp rye spice, cracked pepper, and a tingly chewiness.
