The Oxford Artisan Distillery Rye Whisky - Batch 1 70cl

We sold this highly anticipated whisky via a bottle lottery. Why all the fuss? Read more about this approach over on the blog.

The Oxford Artisan Distillery has released its very first and very own rye whisky! Production for this one began with a diverse maslin grain harvest in 2017, which featured several different grains grown together in the same field, including ancient heritage rye strains, as well as wheat strains, and even some oats and thistles – the final mash bill contained rye, wheat, and malted barley. A long fermentation took place in Hungarian oak vats, and after distillation, the spirit was matured in virgin American oak casks. An impressive, fascinating expression.
