The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
RY3 Light 16 Year Whiskey is a limited edition light whiskey release with an unusual mash bill of 99% corn and just 1% malted barley. Aged 16 years, it belongs to a rarely seen American whiskey category — light whiskey — that's typically distilled at a higher proof and aged in used or lightly charred barrels, giving it a very different profile from a traditional bourbon.
With minimal malted barley in the mix and 16 years of maturation, expect a whiskey with a distinctive character: softer wood influence than a heavily charred bourbon barrel would produce, layered with the sweetness of an almost all-corn mash bill and the mellowing effects of long aging.
Sip it neat to explore this uncommon style, or with a few drops of water to open up the aromatics. It's a great conversation starter for whiskey drinkers who want to try something outside the usual bourbon and rye categories.
