Catskill Provisions Description
FLAVOR: Our spicy, nutty handcrafted rye whiskey is subtly infused in small batches with late-summer honey from the surrounding Catskill Mountains for a smooth, rich flavor with notes of toffee, burnt orange peel and golden raisin. With a delicate, distinctive balance, it is a truly unique experience for the palate.
INGREDIENTS: This rich, complex whiskey is a carefully blended mix of rye, malted barley, corn and a gentle hint of our raw wildflower honey to create a mellow, well-rounded spirit. Blended, filtered and bottled in New York State.
CULTURE: Catskill Provisions is an Artisanal Fine Food & Craft Spirits company with honey at our core. Our 100% raw wildflower honey is the star ingredient in our handcrafted line of products, and each is carefully sourced to include only the finest, locally harvested ingredients to reveal a unique blend of flavors earning us accolades and a loyal following of chefs, foodies and cocktail enthusiasts.
THE SPIRITS: We blazed our own trail to bring you this uniquely spicy, nutty rye whiskey infused with our honey from hives located across the Catskill Mountains. Our honey is added after aging in new American charred barrels - only as a balancing agent not to sweeten this complex whiskey. Indulge in its’ smooth, rich flavor with hints of toffee, burnt orange and golden raisin.

Ultimate Spirits Challenge: 94 Points
A spicy rye kick is matched with succulent aromas of blossom honey, golden raisin, and burnt orange peel. Rye peeks through the honey, with an earthiness to balance the inherent sweetness. Toasted, nutty, and long.
Wine Enthusiast: 88 Points
Reminiscent of tea with honey, this bottling is a collaboration between a whiskey producer and a honey purveyor, both from upstate New York. The three year-old rye is infused with a “slight amount” of raw local honey, creating a light-bodied, drying whiskey, with notes of cedar and black tea, and slightly a sweet honey accent on the finish
