Why We Made This Whisky
We designed Batch 003 to build off of Batch 001 and create its counterharmony. While Batch 001 was a feisty spice-bomb decorated with sweet fruit, Batch 003 is fecund and vibrant, the bottled warmth of summer, preserved and ready to give life in the depths of winter. It is imbued with the elegance of age, presenting a fruit-forward whisky with an undercurrent of spice. Despite only shedding 2% points of ABV, the slight reduction in heat reveals the complexity of fruit and florality developed by a super-aged rye. It is a contemplative whisky more deserving of a snifter than a glencairn glass, presenting the rye-spice backbone on the long warm finish.
