Barrell Craft Spirits Rye Whiskey 4 115.7 Proof 750ml
| Description: | Barrell's Rye Batch #4 highlights rye's earthier side with a base of sweet and smokey 10-year-old Indiana rye to which 5- and 6-year-old barrels from Indiana, Tennessee, and Kentucky were layered in for fruit and spice. Dry, herbaceous, 14-year-old Canadian rye rounds out the blend, resulting in a fruit-forward whiskey with notes of tobacco and leather over peppery stewed red fruit and savory tapenade. Appearance: Copper tones with pumpkin highlights. Finish: A burst of rustic and floral flavors make way for the piquant heat of mole poblano and black pepper on the tongue. The lingering impression is of juniper, thyme, and wormwood. Nose: Blackberry, dried apricot and Concord grape lead off. Followed by notes of blonde tobacco, birch oil, and dandelion root. Rye lends its familiar bouquet garni, lemon verbena, and peppermint aromatics. Lingering aromatics of cashew, tahini, and nocino. Palate: Mirroring the nose, grape soda is joined by a dark amber maple syrup. Burnt marshmallow leads into rich espresso and black licorice. There's a deep umami presence of leather, black olive, and grilled onion. The oak here is strong and extractive yielding clove, coconut oil, and pine needle. With A Splash Of Spring Water: The nose is completely transformed into something bright and fresh, featuring brioche, ricotta, and lychee. Its sweeter side has the nostalgic reverie of vanilla salt-water taffy and mint chocolate chip ice cream. By contrast, the palate's notes of pumpernickel and Dijon mustard maintain its focus on the savory. The finish is resinous, developing mastic, rosemary, and lavender. |
