Sirdavis American Rye Whisky Finished In Px Sherry Cask Texas - East Houston St. Wine & Spirits | Liquor Store & Alcohol Delivery, New York, NY
| Description: | SirDavis is a new, limited-edition rye whiskey created by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter in partnership with Moët Hennessy. This inaugural release is crafted by Dr. Bill Lumsden, featuring a unique 51% rye, 49% malted barley mash bill. Pre-order now for a chance to own this exclusive whiskey, expected to ship in September 2024. Beyoncé Knowles-Carter — the artist with the most Grammy Awards of all time — has teamed up with Moët Hennessy to launch SirDavis, a new brand with an inaugural release in the rye category. It's the first-ever Moët Hennessy brand developed internally and within the United States (as opposed to an acquisition). The brand is named for Davis Hogue, Knowles-Carter's paternal great-grandfather. According to a press release, Davis was a farmer and Prohibition-era moonshiner who once stashed bottles in cedar trees to avoid prying eyes. The non-age stated rye is shipped to Texas (Knowles-Carter's home state) and finished in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. Blending and bottling (at 88 proof) also takes place in Texas. Brand reps have confirmed that this release exceeds the minimum age requirements for straight rye (i.e. 2 years). Nose: Slightly less herbal and a little more fruit-forward, with a dried oak quality that continues throughout. Palate: The first sip is light and oak-forward, which could be a function of an aging lifecycle across multiple casks. A next progression is decidedly spice then fruit, the rye character bringing (again) cinnamon and nutmeg. Finish: The finish leans away from cereal grain and back into rye spice. It's lengthy and tannic, reminiscent of a dry, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon. |
