When our rye hit four years old, we were pleasantly surprised by the density and clarity this benchmark revealed, with darker chocolates, more acidic dried fruits, and a refreshing solvency. We have become so familiar with the dance we have learned to step in our intense Texas climate that new plateaus of elegance and balance in our spirits are much appreciated and hard-won. We hope you enjoy this elevated Bottled in Bond Texas Rye as we look forward to sharing more vistas going forward.
Tasting Notes: A big warm welcome to our Texas Rye Bottled-in-Bond, joining our core lineup of whiskies. The nose balances warm sun tea, candied fennel, and spruce tips before cooling notes of melted mint chip ice cream and raspberry glaze. Graham cracker crust, dark chocolate espresso bean, and cardamom begin the palate before well-articulated notes of carrot frond, cedar chest, and apricot preserves. Nutella and blackberry jam on rye toast linger for the finale. We hope you enjoy this rye neat, on the rocks, or in an old fashioned.
