{"product_id":"kings-county-empire-rye-whiskey","title":"Kings County Empire Rye Whiskey","description":"\u003cp\u003eKings County Empire Rye Whiskey is a New York rye made to the Empire Rye standard from Danko rye and English malt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmpire Rye came out of a 2015 agreement between six New York distilleries who wanted a whiskey style that belonged to their own state; the group has since grown to nine and keeps expanding. The rules are strict: a minimum of 75 per cent New York-grown rye, distillation to no more than 160 proof, at least two years in new oak, and mashing, fermenting, distilling, barrelling and ageing at a single New York distillery in a single season. This bottling uses 80 per cent New York Danko rye and 20 per cent Golden Promise English malt, aged at least two years in charred oak. Context helps: industry estimates suggest as much as 70 per cent of American rye comes from a single Indiana plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplex and glowing, with cinnamon, nutmeg, maple, mint and cut grass, finishing on warm bread and holiday spice. Neat with a drop of water shows it best. It also makes a superb Sazerac or Vieux Carré.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DiVino.com.au","offers":[{"title":"Whisky \/ New York \/ Kings County","offer_id":44288143097915,"sku":"19553-750","price":245.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/0823\/1483\/files\/19553-750.png?v=1790124457","url":"https:\/\/www.divino.com.au\/products\/kings-county-empire-rye-whiskey","provider":"DiVino.com.au","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
