Savage & Cooke, WHISKEY JESUS 2023, 447:1, Single Barrel, Cask Strength Rye Whiskey (California) 750ML
Producer Notes:
GRAIN: All grain is grown within 50 miles of the distillery. Direct relationships have been forged with local farmers and grain is grown to a precise specification. Rye makes up the bulk of the recipe, followed by corn and malted barley.
PRODUCTION: Whole kernels are delivered to the distillery and then milled and mashed on site. Following fermentation, the wash is distilled in a 20 plate, 24” Vendome Copper & Brassworks column still. Five batches of distillate are blended at a time for consistency prior to barreling.
BARRELS & AGING: White American Oak Char #3 barrels are hand-crafted by local cooper Seguin Moreau and the Rye is aged for a minimum of three years, and often longer. All aging is done on site in one of three locations, all with ideal yet different conditions relating to temperature, humidity, sunlight and air flow.
MASH BILL: 51% Rye, 45% Corn, 4% Malted Barley
PROFILE: Intriguing and inviting right from the start. Citrus, tropical and floral notes evolve to white pepper and toasty vanilla on the palate. Rich, layered and complete.
