Tasting Notes
The Oxford Artisan Distillery's Rye Whisky – Batch 3 is a true masterpiece, skillfully crafting an intricate tapestry of flavors that will captivate your senses. Imagine the aroma of wine-soaked dried fruit mingling with the rich notes of liquorice and toasted cedar, subtly complemented by a delicate hint of smoke. As you take a sip, your palate is delighted by the sweet, refreshing taste of honeydew melon and raspberry, perfectly balanced with the decadent creaminess of white chocolate and the subtle dryness of oak. A warm, peppery heat lingers, accompanied by a whisper of smoke, creating a truly memorable experience. The finish is a harmonious blend of vanilla, blackcurrant, soft rye, and a crisp apple note, leaving you longing for another taste. This exceptional whisky showcases the artistry of blending ancient heritage rye strains with wheat, oats, and thistles, initially aged in virgin American oak casks and then masterfully finished in Moscatel de Setúbal wine casks from Portugal, imparting a wealth of rich, ripe, and decadent fruit notes.
