Aged over 2 years and with over 38% rye in the mashbill (high for bourbon). Its fresh, youthful, and brisk, with sweet corn, bright fruit, brittle mint, cinnamon, and a dusting of cocoa, leading to a slightly aggressive finish. A bit too youthful, actually, for sippingit would benefit from a few more years aging. Save this one for your next Manhattan. Its sibling, Redemption Rye (of similar age), fares better.
