Rye whiskey

For other uses, see Rye whiskey (disambiguation).

Rye whiskey can refer to two different, but related, types of whiskey:

  • American rye whiskey, which is similar to bourbon whiskey, but must be distilled from at least 51 percent rye grain
  • Canadian whisky, which is often referred to as (and often labelled as) rye whisky for historical reasons, although it does not necessarily include any rye grain.
