Tasting Notes:
Roknar Minnesota Rye is an estate-grown, grain-to-glass whiskey that highlights the bold spice and depth of northern rye. Distilled from a mash bill of Hazlet winter rye, heirloom corn, and malt barley, it delivers both power and balance. The nose opens with aromas of rye bread, clove, and baking spice accented by honey and citrus peel. On the palate, it’s robust and textured, showing flavors of caramel, black pepper, dried fruit, and cocoa, with hints of mint and herbal lift. The finish is long and warming, leaving echoes of rye spice, toasted oak, and vanilla. Honest and distinctive, Roknar showcases Minnesota terroir in every sip.
