ROKNAR BONDED
RYE WHISKEY
ROKNAR is a single estate rye whiskey born of grain grown and harvested by head distiller Michael Swanson on his family’s fourth generation farm.
This limited release is available online at the link above and in the following states:
GA, KS, MN, MO, ND, NY, WI
Aged for a minimum of 4 years in 53-gallon charred oak barrels and bottled at 100 proof.
With a mash bill of 80% rye, 10% corn and 10% malt barley, Far North aims to establish MINNESOTA RYE as a regional style in the spirit of Pennsylvania and Maryland-style ryes.
We seeded AC Hazlet rye for this Roknar on Section 4 in the fall of 2018. It overwintered in bitterly cold temperatures with good snow cover. It survived a summer hail storm and was harvested in August. It was distilled and barreled in October 2019.
BOTTLED IN BOND
Bottled in bond occupies a rarefied place in the whiskey world. 100 proof. Four years old. Distilled in a single season by a single distiller.
