Sauternes Cask Finished Single Barrel Rye

by

We conventionally aged straight rye mashbill for three years and finished it in sauternes cask from one of the most prestigious wineries of the Sauternes region of Bordeaux in France.

As with all of Coppersea’s “Heritage Methods Distilled”, we mash the Single Barrel Rye in open-top fermenters for additional local terroir, twice-distill in True Fire Copper, direct-fired simple alembic stills, and barrel age our spirits at the ultra-low proof of 105. An Empire Rye.
