Castle & Key Experimental Series 2024 - Vino de Naranja

Tasting Notes

Castle & Key's Experimental Series 2024 - Vino de Naranja is a rye that takes a detour into Spanish sunshine. Aged in Vino de Naranja barrels, it's a wild blend of Kentucky spice and citrusy sweetness. Think cacao nibs dancing with caramelized orange on the nose, followed by a palate that bursts with Rainier cherry, dark honey, and a hint of orange blossom. The finish? Sherry-like at first, then a surprise twist of black peppercorn, dried red fruit, and leather. It's a limited release, bottled at 115.8 proof, that showcases Castle & Key's adventurous spirit. This rye is a vibrant and unique experience, worth seeking out.
