Stalk & Barrel Cask 17 Rye

Rye grain Bavarian sour rye bread rich linseed oil and vague hints of peppermint drift out of the bottle when you first pull the cork. The sweet oily palate is alive with ginger and wasabi accented by acetone high fruity esters and teasing hints of sweet flowers. Notes of plasticine and the earthiness of river plants add complexity. The whisky sizzles with pepper throughout returning to sour rye as the finish fades ever so slowly.
