overall

Revitalized by MGP, a distillery that mostly serves other brands, Rossville Union Rye restores a historic name to the world of rye whiskey. Its 5-6 year age comes across as surprising, since Rossville Union drinks like many other MGP ryes that were aged for less time. With a sip that plays it safe, Rossville Union will please fans of MGP’s characteristic fruit-forward ryes.
