The 2024 edition of Rye The Lightning is crafted from a blend of straight rye whiskeys hand-selected by Rob Dietrich. The whiskeys are vatted and transferred for finishing to Madeira wine and Caribbean rum casks for 2-14 weeks each, where they undergo BLACKENEDs proprietary BLACK NOISE sonic-enhancement process. Rye The Lightning is non-chill filtered and bottled at 92 proof.
