About Templeton Rye 6Yr
Templeton Rye 6Yr is a robust rye whiskey produced by Infinium Spirits, featuring a 95% rye mash bill sourced from MGP Ingredients, aged six years in charred new American oak barrels, and bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof) in Templeton, Iowa. What makes it special is its balanced profile that evolves from the classic spicy rye character into deeper layers of caramel sweetness, toasted oak, and subtle fruit notes thanks to extended aging, setting it apart from younger, bolder ryes. It's ideal for rye enthusiasts seeking an easy-drinking yet sophisticated option that shines neat, on ice, or in cocktails, without overwhelming heat. Compared to other MGP-based ryes, it offers more refinement and complexity at a competitive $33.75 for 750ml, outperforming many peers in value while delivering a middle-of-the-road appeal with surprising depth on the finish.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
The nose reveals a bold rye spice with herbal anise and dry notes like cloves, nutmeg, and cardamom. Sweet undertones of caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, and blood orange mingle with toasted coconut and subtle smoky oak. Floral hints and dried cherries add richness, evoking cream cheese danishes or pumpernickel bread.
👅 Palate
On the palate, juicy citrus like fresh oranges, grapefruits, and green apple bursts forth, balanced by sweet caramel, brown sugar, vanilla, and baking spices. Rye spice delivers tingly heat with black pepper and cinnamon, alongside dark chocolate, toasted nuts, and coconut, creating a light to medium mouthfeel that's more sweet than aggressively spicy. Oak provides a toasty backbone without dominating.
✨ Finish
The medium-long finish combines alcohol burn, rye spice, and caramel sweetness with maraschino cherry, dry oak, dill-like herbs, and dusty cinnamon tannins. It lingers with bold oak and nutmeg, mellowing into a smooth, spicy close.
