Made like bourbon but filtered through sugar-maple charcoal before ageing (the Lincoln County Process), which softens it.
Spicier and drier than bourbon because rye grain gives peppery, herbal notes. The classic base of the Manhattan and the Sazerac.
Rum flavoured with spices and usually sweetened.
