Pinhook - 2024 Collaboration Series No. 3 Cask Strength Whiskey by Jordan Salcito
Pinhook was founded with the ethos of sourcing great barrels of whiskey and taking a creative and unique approach to blending and proofing. The Collaboration Series reflects our commitment to exploring the ever growing craft whiskey movement and “pinhooking” barrels based on experience, quality, a little patience, and a bit of luck.
This edition showcases a warm nose of poached pear, vanilla curd, cardamom, and
light cedar and leads to a luxurious palate of raspberries, wild honey, clove, and graham cracker.
In this third edition, Sean revisited his wine roots with Jordan Salcito, our 2024 collaborator. Jordan is an internationally renowned sommelier with a storied career in the wine world and at leading restaurants including Restaurant Daniel, Eleven Madison Park, and Momofuku where her wine list was named the “Most Original Wine List in the World” by World of Fine Wine Magazine. In 2016, she founded Drink RAMONA, a family of award-winning Italian spritzes.
She bonded with Sean Josephs over their shared love of wine and backgrounds as sommeliers. Together, they blended this extraordinary Australian whisky from four distinct styles of Starward Australian Single Malt, which had been exclusively aged in red wine barrels, further bridging the worlds of wine and whiskey.
Like Pinhook, Starward is known for moving beyond tradition and letting curiosity and creativity be their guide. Inspired by the famed Australian wine region in their backyard, they aged their whisky in red wine barrels and in Melbourne, Australia's notoriously wild climate. The constant change in temperature makes the barrels contract and expand at a much faster rate, leading the whisky to take on the delicious flavors from the wood.
