Detailed Description
RoughStock Black Label Montana Whiskey is also matured for up to five years, before the team at RoughStock Distillery hand-selects single barrels for bottling. “We’re looking for deep, rich, complex aromas and tastes,” says Schultz. “When those barrels are found, we put them aside for our Black Label.” Once the barrel has been selected, it is bottled at cask strength — “unadulterated in any way.” As a result of being the product of a single barrel, each bottle of RoughStock Black Label Whiskey varies slightly, although they all enjoy aromas of dark stone fruits, and notes of toffee and chocolate that lead to a long and warming finish.
Roughstock Montana Black Label Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: Creamy caramel and toffee on the nose with dark fruits and pepper coming in. A beautiful smoky edge.
Palate: Not at all tasting like a young Whiskey, but rich and complex flavor of toasted oak, pepper, dried fruit and dark caramel.
Finish: Long finish with oak and green apple notes.
Distillery Information
Roughstock Distillery was created by Bryan Schultz in 2008, the first distillery in Montana in over 100 years. One thing history tells us is that a great whiskey starts with two things: amazing grain and pure water. Luckily Roughstock has plenty of both right in Montana, rivaling the best of any place in the world. With beautiful grain grown throughout the state and the pure mountain snowmelt that fills the lakes, streams, rivers, and aquifers, it’s a no-brainer that Montana was meant for making whiskey.
