CASK 3

STORY : Distilled in the city of Bayswater WA from a blend of finished quality craft red ale, double red ale & tiny parts of fresh Motueka pilsner. The double distilled new make spirit then vacuum distilled with cracked, malted rye berries from selected parts of the new make distillate to further clean the spirit and accentuate the grain in the recipe. Distillates separated and blended at casking. Unconventionally distilled & matured in a new, Char 4 Hungarian Oak 112 litre cask for a period of 27 months before decanted and bottled at cask strength 58.20%

EYES : Bright red with mahogany & golden hues

NOSE : Fuji apple, cinnamon, orange oils & red fruits. Cracked, malted Rye cereal grain, gingerbread schnapps. English toffee & sweet almonds

FINISH : Balanced smoky and blistering oak tactiles balance with spicy grain & savoury lignin, crisp tannins & a touch of sweet whiskey lactone make this expression moreish and distinct for Rye Whiskey.

With the use of a pipette or 'pure' ice the long 'range' of the whiskey can be explored & appreciated at much lower abv's revealing profiles of butterscotch & oily peanut butter all the way down to a golden colour, whilst the rye is prominent from start to finish. A journey through grain forward Whiskey at Cask Strength to below 35% abv.
