Straight Rye Whiskey | 52.5% ABV (105 Proof) | 750 mL | Kentucky, USA | Toasted Barrel Finish

Process & Profile
Blackwood Toasted 105 Straight Rye Whiskey is a lower-proof expression in Blackwood’s toasted rye lineup, created to showcase the brand’s signature toasted-barrel character in a more approachable format. The whiskey keeps the spice, structure, and grain-forward personality expected from a straight rye, while the toasted finishing process brings added warmth, sweetness, and layered oak character to the profile.

Compared with higher-proof toasted rye releases, this 105-proof version is positioned as a more accessible pour that still carries plenty of depth. It offers a balanced style that moves from rye spice and caramelized sweetness into toasted wood, vanilla, and a polished finish. For shoppers looking for a toasted rye whiskey with solid character and easier day-to-day drinkability, this bottle fills that role well within the Blackwood range.
