Rye malt whiskey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rye malt whiskey, under US regulations, is a whiskey produced via a mash primarily consisting of malted rye.[1] It is distinct from rye whiskey due to the malting step, and is distinct from unqualified malt whiskey, which is made from malted barley, not rye.
