It had rye as the flavor of the grain.
David DeFazioGUEST

David DeFazioGUEST
One of the things that Edrington really focused on was our rye and the products that we've made with that have been outstanding.
David DeFazioGUEST
We're not going to completely go away from our weeded roots because at the end of the day, that's what I love.
