Chocolate Malt Sweet Mash Rye Whiskey 2023
Hard Truth Master Distiller’s Reserve Chocolate Malt Sweet Mash Rye Whiskey (RW-3) brings the deep, roasted chocolate espresso notes from chocolate malted barley to play with the sweetness of corn and the nice baking spice of rye grain.
This, and the other two whiskeys in the 2023 Hard Truth Master Distiller’s Reserve collection, are the second release of an extremely limited, annual selection of sweet mash whiskeys that have been handcrafted, aged, custom-blended, and bottled by the distillers at Hard Truth.
