Overview

More Info

Our Solera Aged Rum finished rye whiskey started as an experimental project. We decided to employ the Solera aging method, a technique for blending and aging from the old world to create a rum cask rye whiskey. Back then there were only one or two rum cask finished rye whiskies in the mainstream market, so it was natural for us to add to this underappreciated category. Spicy rye and fruity rums are a natural complement — think Caribbean spice cake. Tasting along the way, we found notes from our casks ranging from classic baking spices like allspice, clove, cinnamon, to fresh pineapple skins, pressed apple cider, and sweetened pears. Unlike the Bourbon finished in Sherry and Cognac casks where we manipulate and play with the blend throughout the process, Doc Swinson’s Rye Whiskey finished in Rum cask Soleras is only influenced before the solera process, what is bottled is straight from the solera.
