Cutwater Black Skimmer American Rye Whiskey is a meticulously blended straight rye from Cutwater Spirits — selected, curated, and blended in concert with some of Cutwater’s favorite whiskey distillers, presenting notes of honey, almond, black pepper, and a hint of clove in a smooth, approachable rye expression born from Cutwater’s unconventional curiosity and creative spirit.
The Black Skimmer Rye carries the same philosophy as the Bourbon — a collaborative blend built for smooth drinking and accessibility rather than aggressive rye intensity, suitable for both neat sipping and cocktail applications. Browse all Cutwater at Wooden Cork.
