We like to think of our 100% Malted Rye Whiskey as a malt whiskey first, and a rye
whiskey second. Given that malty identity, it seemed natural to give it a sherry
cask finish, as often used for malt whiskeys around the world. Handcrafted
Spanish oloroso and pedro ximenez sherry casks were judiciously applied. The
result is a rather unique whiskey in the pantheon of sherry cask aging. The sherry
cask element is forward and deeply pitched, yet beautifully leavened by the
piquant grains, which burst into the finish like a sunrise. It takes an already girthy
rye and amplifies the body and mouthfeel. In short, our Malted Rye has indeed
taken sherry cask aging very well in hand—and arguably proved itself as a malt
whiskey of the world.
