Yes but it’s made from the grain rye, not from corn or barely mash so people usually refer to it as rye or rye whiskey. Just saying whiskey typically implies barley to most people. Saying bourbon means it’s from the US and almost always corn.
I really like rye. It’s generally less sweet than bourbon but still delivers the oak barrel complexities of bourbon or scotch.
All the americans are a blend of grains. Im sure some exceptions exist, but Bourbon refers to specific amount of the grain being corn. (I wanna say 51 percent or more, but its been a minute since my liquor store training) Rye, well, yea more grain rye.
Isnt rye a type of whiskey? Dont get me wrong its the worst kind, below scotch even ykwim

Nothing wrong with being a rye fan, im just not.
Bourbon is a specific place like champagne
Outside of France Bourbon is just a sparkling Capetian
Not true.
It depends on what you like. Rye whiskey tends to have a sweeter flavor than other varieties.
