Barrell Seagrass Rye Whiskey finished in Martinique Rum, Madeira & Apricot Brandy Barrels

Barrell Seagrass Rye Whiskey - Seagrass highlights the grassy oceanside notes we love in rye and the opulence and spice of finishing barrels. It is a blend of American and Canadian rye whiskeys, each ingredient finished separately in Martinique Rhum Agricole casks, apricot brandy casks and Madeira barrels.

A pale tawny with straw highlights. High concentrations of bright, fruity esters lend a perfume like character to the aroma. Honeydew melon and plum sit alongside a slice of ripe apricot resting out in the sun. The underlying rye is revealed by a sea-like salinity, tarragon, and elderflower. Sweet and juicy, Seagrass opens on pear, lycee, and white grapefruit. Classic rye flavors of cinnamon, rosemary, fennel seed, and rosehip aren't far behind. Unctuous texture and sandy tannin are complemented by a delicate astringency so common to Canadian whiskeys. Fresh and clean, but the persistent tannin and astringency focus the powerful burst of camphor, chalk dust, and scorched earth.
