Lost Lantern Single Cask Series Broad Branch Distilling 8 Year Old North Carolina Straight Rye, 70.8%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2026 ● Reviewer: Julia Higgins ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
This single barrel from North Carolina’s Broad Branch Distilling, made from 100% Washington state prairie rye, practically leaps out of the glass with punchy aromas of cinnamon powder, orange marmalade, clove, and spearmint gum. A lush mouthfeel pairs plenty of barrel influence with dark chocolate and heaps of spice. The eye-watering finish packs in even more notes of dark chocolate and spice—rye lovers will revel in this.
