Hard Truth Caramel Malt Sweet Mash Rye Whiskey
Hard Truth Master Distiller’s Reserve Caramel Malt Sweet Mash Rye Whiskey (RW-4) brings the caramel corn and sticky toffee notes of caramel malted barley to match with the whiskey’s inherent sweetness and rye spice.
This, and the other two whiskeys in the 2022 Hard Truth Master Distiller’s Reserve collection, are the first of an extremely limited, annual release of sweet mash whiskeys that have been handcrafted, aged, custom-blended, and bottled by the distillers at Hard Truth.
