Sonoma Distilling Straight Rye Whiskey (750ml)

Product Description

Sonoma Distilling Straight Rye Whiskey 750ml is a bold, grain-forward California rye curated by blackbook for its craft authenticity, balance, and expressive spice. Distilled and aged by Sonoma Distilling Co., this straight rye highlights a hands-on, small-batch approach that lets the grain speak clearly while integrating oak with restraint.

Built on a rye-forward mashbill and matured in charred American oak, this whiskey delivers classic rye spice—cracked pepper, baking spice, and toasted grain—layered with caramel sweetness and a clean, structured finish. It’s assertive without being harsh, making it equally rewarding neat or in spirit-forward cocktails.

At blackbook, we prioritize regional craft whiskeys that offer a true sense of place. Sonoma Distilling Straight Rye does exactly that—California-made, confidently styled, and built for real-world drinking.
