Detailed Description

The whiskeys were similar to their 18th Century Style Whiskey, specifically in that all are made with a 100 percent malted rye mash bill and aged primarily new, toasted, extra fine-grain American oak barrels. The stout casks in particular had an interesting life. Originally used for a straight rye, Anchor founder Fritz Maytag reportedly used them to age apple brandy for a time, then transferred in a stout for about a year (it’s important to note that he also founded Anchor Brewing Company). The latest whiskey was aged in those casks for six months.

Old Potrero Finished in Port Barrels Straight Malt Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: A whiff starts out of with a burst of caramel, but the aroma quickly broadens out into a fruit pastry-like bouquet, dominated by an earthier caramel and sweet cooked apples with notes of pear and spices. A few moments later, the aroma took a turn for the worse by developing into an unflattering combination of bitter baking chocolate, port, and a touch of licorice.

Palate: Taking a sip, the Port-finished single malt puts forward a tastier version of what found distasteful in the nose – dominated by a richer but sweeter chocolate alongside a mellower port with spicy rye notes. As it sits on the tongue, it develops sweeter caramelly notes that are evened out by more pronounced touches of ginger and clove.

Finish: A sweet, port-like residue in its wake throughout the mouth.
