Pure Rye Whiskey 750ml

Bottle size

Highspire Pure Rye Whiskey finely displays both the the tradition of pre-Prohibition ryes as well as the innovative techniques being used to age whiskey today. This 100% rye whiskey, made from local Kentucky grains, is swiftly aged in California wine barrels. Highspire Pure Rye Whiskey is made from 100% specialty rye grains grown on the historic Waldeck Farm in Crestwood, Kentucky, which is only a few hundred yards from the distillery, Kindred Distilled Spirits. Once the grains have been milled, mashed and distilled, the resulting spirit is aged in California wine barrels, which balances the fresh, plump rye character with notes of fruit and spice from the wine, as well as vanilla, caramel and oak from the staves themselves. Highspire Pure Rye Whiskey finely displays both the the tradition of pre-Prohibition ryes as well as the innovative techniques being used to age whiskey today.…

Somewhat harsh. Nose is play mixture with a whiff a zest and vanilla. Sense of taste is to a great extent the equivalent with more rye zest jabbing through. Finish is shockingly smooth yet short. This bourbon is done with oak fights giving it the dainty facade old enough without the progressing or multifaceted nature that genuine maturing brings. Might locate a home in mixed drinks however not as a perfect sipper.

Tasting Notes

Nose

This whiskey smells of the essence of the rye grain in a way that is both reminiscent of fresh bread as well as the fruitier aspect of rye, one which possesses bold notes of pear skin, glazed carrots, and is tied together by burnt caramel and a cloud of oak that hovers over the whole sensory experience.

Taste

As the whiskey hits my palate, at first, the maillard-like depth of sugar makes an immediate impression of luxuriousness. The ‘baking bread’ aspect of the nose becomes a big part of the front palate, a perfect compeimentary inhalation to the sweeter, complex caramel note. A touch of green peppercorn appears mid-palate, as well as the numbing, creeping spice from the rye grain which plays well with the mild alcohol presence.

Finish

The finish is sharp with strong notes of wood shavings.
