Dark Rye is normally a 100% wholemeal Rye flour, ie: with nothing taken out, so if you want the maximum health and nutritional benefits from your bread then this is the best choice.

Light Rye is a rye flour which has had some of the wheatgerm removed. It makes a lighter coloured, less dense loaf, and can be used in combination with Dark Rye to tailor a loaf to your tastes. A light Rye flour does not have to be bleached and some of the wheatgerm is left in, so it's not nearly as devoid of nutritional value as a standard bleached white flour would be.

Dark rye bread is made primarily from rye flour and often includes a mixture of other flours, giving it a dense texture and a slightly sour flavor due to fermentation. Pumpernickel bread, on the other hand, is a specific type of dark rye bread made from coarsely ground whole rye berries and traditionally baked slowly at low temperatures, resulting in a rich, sweet flavor and a moist texture. While both breads contain rye, pumpernickel is typically darker and has a more intense flavor profile.
