Charbay R5 Lot 5 Whiskey 49.5% 750ml Double Alambic Pot Distilled In Northern California
| Description: | This Is A Pre-sale With The Item Scheduled To Arrive On June 1st. Marko Karakasevic double distilled this whiskey in Charbay's Copper Alambic Charentais Pot Still. Charbay R5 is distilled from bottle-ready Racer 5 Ipa beer from Bear RepublicR Brewery in Northern California. This hoppy American Ipa is a full bodied beer brewed from American pale and crystal malts, and heavily hopped with Chinook, Cascade, Columbus and Centennial hops. Marko chose Gold Medal winning Racer 5 because in his opinion it is the definition of Northern California Ipa: upfront & aromatic hops, malty, great dose of bittering hops, high quality two row barley, balanced and a smooth, clean finish. All of these flavors translate into the whiskey. Lot No. 5 was distilled in July 2013; 10 Barrel Release. Aged in French Oak for five years. Flavor profile: Aromas of toasted cinnamon, honeysuckle and flowers. Front cloves, all spice & floral notes. Mid tobacco and earthiness. Finish herbaceous, long sweet finish with hints of mulling spices. Racer 5 Whiskey History: Marko wanted to distill whiskey from his favorite beer, Racer 5 Ipa from Bear Republic. He talked to the Norgrove family (Bear Republic is family owned and operated, as is Charbay) about the concept and a new friendship was immediately sparked. Charbay R5 is the brainchild of Marko after four years of extensive research with the Bear Republic team. |
