Masterson’s 10 Year Old Hungarian Oak Rye Whisky

Detailed Description

Made in homage to Bat, Masterson’s 10-Year-Old Straight Rye Whiskey is made from 100% rye grains. The rye is grown in the verdant Pacific Northwest, and only grains that exhibit the perfect combination of weight, plumpness and rich, earthy fragrance are harvested. After the grains have been milled and mashed, they are fermented with inoculated, dry yeast, which helps give Masterson’s Rye its unique flavor profile. The wash is then distilled through pot stills, before being aged in white-oak casks for just over a decade. This special Masterson series is comprised of 10-year-old whiskeys that have undergone a finishing period in one of three different barrel types: American, French, or Hungarian oak. After ten years of aging, this whiskey is finished in fine-grain Hungarian oak barrels sourced from Quercus Petraea. These barrels were air-dried outdoors for at least two years, promoting natural fungi (moss) growth on the barrels, which subsequently releases more vanillin. Hungary’s dynamic four-season climate also imparts a delicate balance accentuating vanillin and nut flavors. This flavor has sweet wood overtones, finished up with a smooth round mouthfeel.
