Cleveland Underground Black Cherry Wood Rye Whiskey (750ml)

Product Description

Cleveland Underground Black Cherry Wood Rye Whiskey 750ml is a bold, innovative rye curated by blackbook for drinkers who appreciate modern technique, expressive wood influence, and unmistakable flavor. Using Cleveland Underground’s proprietary pressure-aging process, this rye is finished with Black Cherry wood, infusing the whiskey with deep fruit character and layered sweetness in a fraction of traditional aging time—without sacrificing structure.

The rye base brings classic spice and grain intensity, while the Black Cherry wood adds dark fruit, vanilla, and subtle confectionary notes that round the edges and enhance complexity. The result is a rye that feels rich, approachable, and distinctly different—spice-forward at its core, but polished and expressive on the finish.

At blackbook, we spotlight experimental whiskeys that deliver real flavor—not gimmicks. Cleveland Underground Black Cherry Wood Rye does exactly that, offering a modern rye experience that still respects balance and drinkability.
