Since the return to popularity of Rye Whisky over the last decade or so, bartenders have been reaching for Rye Whisky not just to fill their shots glasses, but for cocktails. The robust character and smooth spiced flavours of rye, along with its ability to pair well with all array of ingredients, make Rye Whisky a popular choice for both classic & contemporary cocktails.
Rye Whisky represents a cornerstone ingredient of the cocktail world, being one of the leading spirits at both the start of cocktail culture and one of the bastions of new world drinking.
Tired of a poorly balanced old fashioned made with sweeter styles of whisky, sugar and sweet orange? Spice it up and balance it with rye whisky.
Want a livelier twist on your whisky sour? Shake up a Rattlesnake with Rye Whisky for an earthy resonance and a drop of absinthe for that extra punch.
Rye is both extremely characterful, and especially in the case of Fielden Rye Whisky, approachable to curious but as yet unfamiliar palates. For a distinctively delicious taste and a rich heritage as a cocktail ingredient, reach for rye when mixing at home.
