Barrell Craft Spirits - Bourbon Rye Batch 003
Rye Batch 003 is a blend of rye whiskeys from Indiana, Poland, Tennessee and Canada, all with distinct personalities and varying ages. We started with Tennessee Rye barrels showing caramel and dried fruit notes and added the Polish Rye for its nuttiness and mouthfeel. We then carefully layered in 13-year Canadian Rye to bring out earthy notes of grass, spearmint and apple. The Indiana Rye was the finishing touch to highlight the candied fruit and spiciness you expect from a rye."
Nose: Minty creamy ice cream nose. Mint can be a common nosing note in ryes, but this is particularly fresh and creamy. It has that nicely intense perfume floral note consistent with a good rye. Lingering dark chocolate, a vague herbal note are a nice complex layer to this otherwise quiet nose.
Palate: Floral, minty, cinnamon, and back tea herbal. Really fun on the palate. It’s dry, intense, and paprika-level spicy. The creaminess really settles in nicely toward the finish, but the paprika spice burn never departs. It has all the elements of a great rye
