Rough Rider Straight Bourbon Whisky is produced by Long Island Spirits. Located on the North Fork of Long Island, the distillery is housed in a restored barn on a potato farm. The whisky is made from a mashbill of 60% corn, 35% rye and 5% barley. It is aged in new charred American oak barrels and finished in Merlot and Chardonnay casks washed with brandy. Rough Rider is named after Theodore Roosevelt's cavalry, who fought in the Battle of San Juan Hill in 1898.

  • If you have a sweet tooth, you'll probably really enjoy this whiskey. It was very smooth and easy to drink, with complex flavors because of the wine-barrel and brandy finish. I would definitely buy this whiskey again.

  • The rye gives it a zing of clove, pepper and allspice to round it out. It's the tastes of childhood comfort in a grown up glass!
