Doc Swinson's | Alter Ego Solera Method | Straight Rye Whiskey

Matured in a solera system where younger whiskies are slowly added into older barrels over time, the Doc Swinson rye is bottled at 47.5% after an additional maturation in rum casks. If you're a fan of the Basil Hayden Caribbean Cask series, you'll definitely want to check this one out. A blend of mash bills aged 4-6 years in new oak and bottled without chill filtration, this edition took Double Gold honors at the SF Spirits Competition. Never too sweet on the palate, the honeyed notes from the rum gently coat the spicy and herbaceous character of the rye, still shining through at 95 proof.

Distillery Information

The Doc Swinson’s Collection began with an extremely small cache of Bourbon Barrels that were just too good to pass up. It has since grown into a unique and on occasion extremely rare, collection of American whiskies. The proof is in the palate. Each whiskey brought in is personally tasted by the three of us at Doc Swinson’s. If it’s good we will find a place for it in either the Flagship, Exploratory or Rare Release series. When it comes to finishing techniques, we look to the old-world traditions that have stood the test of time, from Scottish whiskey blenders to the timeless sherry pyramids of the Spanish solera. However, sometimes we stumble upon a whiskey that needs no perfecting and we simply bottle at cask strength. Whatever whiskey comes through these doors, our small group of tastemakers at Doc’s work hard to create flavor profiles that hold our expectations of great whiskey to a higher standard; and that starts by always letting the whiskey shine.
