A Rye Worthy of the Name

Built on a purist mash bill, our Small Batch Elite Rye delivers vibrant spice, herbal brightness and savory depth—yet remains surprisingly smooth. There’s no corn to blur its identity, only a rye that wears its character proudly and remains rugged yet refined.

“This is a standout in Land Run's lineup. The absence of corn lets the rye and malted barley take center stage, giving this whiskey a flavor profile that's equal parts savory and sweet.”

Tasting Notes

Nose

Nose

Bold spice, fresh dill, and grassy green notes bloom into bakery-fresh rye bread—a savory aroma reminiscent of a classic Reuben sandwich. Evergreen and sweet spearmint add unexpected depth and nostalgia.

Palate

Palate

A complex dance unfolds: sweet mint and rustic tobacco leaf meet dark, sticky raw honey. Rye grain and caraway seed shine through, alongside molasses cookies, peppermint and a savory blend of black pepper and baking spice. A subtle trace of maple offers a final, intriguing twist.

Finish

Finish

Medium to long, with earthy grain notes, rich molasses and a persistent yet balanced backbone of spice. Malted barley lends a honeyed softness that fades into creamy mint, clove and a faint wisp of pipe smoke. Rugged yet refined—like a flannel shirt lined with silk.

Color

Color

Burnished copper, echoing the matte glow of the copper stills used to craft it.

NOT A BOURBON IN DISGUISE

  • True rye character—bold, spicy and authentic
  • No corn in the mash bill, preserving pure rye identity
  • Perfect neat, over a single cube or in a rebellious Mint Julep
  • A rye that pairs beautifully with smoked meats or stands alone as a sipper
  • Crafted for those who demand more than ordinary whiskey

Because a rye this good deserves more than one story.

No matter which you choose, the spirit inside is the same distinctive rye that people can’t stop talking about.

One to collect. One to sip.
