The Oxford Artisan Distillery Rye Whisky - 2017 Harvest
The Oxford Artisan Distillery
Tasting Notes
Crafted with a commitment to sustainability and biodiversity, The Oxford Artisan Distillery Rye Whisky is a true gem. Distilled from a unique blend of heritage grains, including maslin (a harmonious mix of rye and wheat) and malted barley, this whisky captivates the senses with its intricate layers of flavors. The aroma tantalizes with notes of dried red fruits, garden herbs, and a hint of liquorice, complemented by the sweetness of honeyed almonds and sticky dates. On the palate, toasty oak and vanilla intertwine with chocolate raisins, roasted nuts, and a touch of earthy coffee, creating a delightful symphony. The finish lingers with mocha, charred oak, and the herbaceous spice of rye, leaving a lasting impression. This whisky's maturation in a thoughtful combination of American oak and wine casks imparts a depth of flavors that showcases the artistry behind its creation.
