About Sabertooth Rye Whisky
The Irnich family emigrated from Germany in 2007. Their home building company ran into trouble in 2015 after a devastating fire, prompting the family to rethink their future. The family's German roots had ties to both distilling and ice cream making, so they decided to join the two. As their boozy gelato business thrived, they decided to branch out into spirits ― by the time, they already had a distillery set up.Based in St. Albert, Canada, they named their operation the T-Rex Distillery, after a visit to the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta left them impressed by the Black Beauty T-Rex fossil ― one of the finest specimens in the world. The distillery is built on honesty and sustainability while "keeping it as local as possible." Sticking together as a family, they produce vodka, rum, gin, and whisky.
Sabertooth Rye had the father and son of the Irnich family collaborate in order to create this "smoky rye," as they like to call it. Distilled from 100% Canadian rye grain, the spirit is matured using their "next-gen" aging method, resulting in a unique Canadian rye whisky with notes of oak, smoke, and butterscotch. The 80-proof expression has won a Silver Medal at the 2021 edition of the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

About Rye
As American as the bald eagle, rye whiskey was first brewed in the American Northeast in the 1600s. Even George Washington distilled it after leaving the Oval Office, so there’s no way of denying its origin.
It’s distinguished from bourbon for its original and unique spicy notes.
By law, rye whiskey must be made from at least 51% rye grain, aged in new and charred oak barrels for at least two years, and bottled at no more than 62,5% ABV.
