Hailing from Distillery 291, nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, a three-year-old single cask rye whiskey, produced using 100% Colorado rye. Triple distilled in locally made pot stills and matured in heavily charred American white oak barrels before an experimental finish with toasted aspen staves, this one was bottled up by That Boutique-y Whisky Company for its USA Series.
Batch 2 is a release of 294 bottles.
That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles limited edition whiskies from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blends. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose Vibrant, herbaceous spice leads the way, with toasted pumpernickel and a touch of damp hay. Sweet notes of ginger snaps and liquorice follow on.
Palate Toasted, seeded granary bread and plenty of spice, accompanied by roasted coffee beans and cracked pepper.
Finish Balanced notes of cacao and chilli flakes bring a tickle of warmth to the finish.
