Indiana Rye Whiskey 6 Years Old Oloroso Sherry Finish

ABV: 47.5% 70 cL

INDIANA RYE WHISKY meets OLOROSO SHERRY CASK maturation in this ‘first’ outing for Pintail into American Whiskey and what a result this has given us. From an undisclosed distillery, we do know that the mash-bill is more than 90% rye, aged for 5-and-a-half years in Virgin American Oak, before a further 14 months in two fresh Oloroso Sherry Octaves.
The whiskey spent most of the ageing process in the Indiana climate, enjoying hot summers and resulting in a relatively rapid maturation before its final period in Spanish oak. This has resulted, despite being among the younger whiskies bottled, in a whiskey that is extremely well developed and complex in character.

TASTING NOTES:

NOSE:  Cooked apples, chocolate raisins, clove spice, mint leaf.
PALATE: Amaretto cherries, apple crumble, grapefruit, vanilla, toasted
oak, fresh herbs and black pepper.
FINISH: Creamy, sweet cinnamon, sugary mocha, Festive spices and a
hint of spearmint freshness.
