Redemption Rum Cask Finish Rye Whiskey

Redemption Rum Cask Finish Rye Whiskey is a distinctive expression that marries the bold spice of rye with the rich sweetness of Caribbean rum. Crafted from a mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley, this whiskey undergoes a secondary maturation in Jamaican and Barbadian rum barrels, resulting in a harmonious blend of flavors.

On the nose, it offers inviting aromas of dried stone fruits, clover honey, and baking spices such as clove and caraway. The palate reveals a complex interplay between the rye's characteristic spice—featuring notes of caraway, clove, and white pepper—and the tropical sweetness imparted by the rum casks, including flavors of sultana raisins, guava, and passionfruit. The Barbadian casks contribute a warming richness upfront, while the Jamaican casks impart an earthy, fruity finish on the back end. The finish is light and breathy, with golden raisins dusted in a whisper of Ceylon cinnamon, balancing the sweetness of the younger barrels with the soft tannin and baking spice of the longer finish.

Bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV), this whiskey offers a rich and velvety texture, making it a versatile choice for sipping neat, on the rocks, or as a unique base in premium cocktails.
