Knight Ryeder is Doc’s take on the classic bourbon and cola. Most bourbon/colas start with a quality bourbon but are then mixed with a super sweet, high fructose corn syrup laden global brand-named cola that crushes the flavor of the whiskey and leaves you with a headache. Doc would never do that. His Knight RyeDer starts with an all-natural kola that perfectly complements his small batch rye. Doc uses rye instead of bourbon to create a slightly different, spicier flavor. Obviously, nothing artificial. No high fructose corn syrup. Drink smart. It’s the Doc’s orders!
You should get big kola aroma. Your first sip should have a full kola flavor up front, followed by subtle vanilla in the middle and then the spice of the rye counter-balancing the slight sweetness of the kola to create a clean finish. Every sip after that should mellow. To mellow it out even further, pour over ice and/or garnish with a lime.
