Oak & Eden Rye & Rumba is a rye whiskey finished inside the bottle. Oak & Eden, based in Bridgeport, Texas, is known for its in-bottle finishing method: a five-inch spiral-cut piece of oak called the Spire is dropped into every bottle, so the whiskey keeps developing on the shelf and in your bar. For Rye & Rumba, that Spire is soaked in rum before it goes in, layering tropical sweetness over the rye.
The whiskey itself is a straight rye sourced primarily from Indiana, bottled at 90 proof with the rum-soaked Spire inside. As the whiskey sits, the rum-seasoned oak gives up caramelized sugar, dried fruit and nutty notes, and the brand encourages you to let the bottle rest and taste how it changes over time. The Spire also makes it one of the most distinctive-looking bottles on the shelf, which has made Oak & Eden a popular gift. It is a fun rye for an Old Fashioned with a rum-forward twist, or for anyone curious about how finishing actually works.
