Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ABV and proof of Ryes of the Robots - Cask Strength Rye?
This cask strength rye is bottled at its full barrel proof, offering a higher ABV than standard releases. While the exact ABV varies by batch, cask strength rye whiskeys typically range from 55% to over 60% ABV (110–120+ proof).
How would you describe the flavor profile?
Expect bold, intense flavors common to cask strength rye, including rich notes of spice, pepper, and rye grain, with secondary layers that may feature vanilla, caramel, dried fruit, and hints of mint or herbal complexity. The finish is typically long and warming with lingering spice.
Is this whiskey single barrel or blended?
Cask strength ryes can be either single barrel or small batch. If Ryes of the Robots specifies “single barrel,” each bottle comes from one unique barrel; otherwise, it may be a blend of select barrels, all bottled at full strength.
How should I enjoy this cask strength rye?
Due to its high proof, many enthusiasts like to sip it neat to experience its full flavor, but adding a few drops of water can help open up the aromas and soften the alcohol's intensity without diluting its character.
Is Ryes of the Robots limited edition?
Cask strength releases are often produced in smaller quantities, making them more limited and collectible than standard expressions. Check with Filmland Spirits for batch or release details.
What makes cask strength rye different from standard rye whiskey?
Cask strength means the whiskey is bottled directly from the barrel without dilution, so it retains higher alcohol content and a more robust flavor profile compared to standard expressions, which are typically proofed down with water before bottling.
Are there any unique ingredients in this rye?
While standard rye whiskeys are made from a high proportion of rye grain, some cask strength ryes feature unique mash bills with specialty grains or additional grains for flavor complexity (such as dark pumpernickel rye or non-GMO corn in some craft releases). Consult Filmland Spirits for specific mash bill details.
