Rye Cask Strength Single Barrel Rye

The new Mission exclusive single barrel of Ry3 was finished with the same rum cask used in our RON IZALCO 10 YEAR OLD PRIVATE RESERVE SELECTION. A marriage of three rye whiskies from Canada and the U.S., Karthik Suhdir worked with the team from Joseph Magnus to help create the blend. Imagine if you could get Angel’s Envy rye whiskey from a single barrel at full proof! That’s what this baby tastes like. The nose is pure maple glazed donut; like you’re smelling a delicious maple bar and it’s right under your freaking nostrils. But rather than overdose on sugar, the rye spice kicks in immediately on the palate, to the point that you almost can’t believe it’s the same spirit. That spice turns into cinnamon and clove and then the proof kicks in big on the backend. I’m such a big fan of this! I’m hoping this is the cask that gives Karthik and his team their due. I can’t imagine anyone not liking this. -David Driscoll, Mission Sales Manager
