ST. LOUIS, Aug. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Luxco
announced Rossville Union Single Barrel selections are bottled and
on the way to participating retailers. Customized bottles of the
straight rye whiskey, bearing the names of participating retail
accounts, will arrive in August, just in time for National Rye
Month.
Earlier this year, retailers were able to taste, select and
order their own barrel of Rossville Union Straight Rye Whiskey,
choosing from three unique mash bills, each offered at cask
strength. This process was conducted virtually, with participating
retail accounts corresponding online and by phone with the
distillery team at MGP's historic distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana.
"In Lawrenceburg we have a long history of crafting fantastic
rye whiskey," said MGP Master Blender David Whitmer. "Our single
barrel program is particularly rewarding, as it gives our retailers
the opportunity to select a rye whiskey that is exactly what their
customers will enjoy. Rye enthusiasts will enjoy this year's picks,
as we'll have something for every palate."
Known as the "Masters of Rye," MGP is a leading distiller of the
country's rye whiskies, including Rossville Union Master Crafted
Straight Rye Whiskey and Rossville Union Barrel Proof Straight Rye
Whiskey.
