Found North 16 Year Old Cask Strength Rye Whisky

Rye spice is a double-edged sword. The deeper you cut into the flavor opportunities, the spicier the palate. You can easily smooth the spice out with new oak or water it down through proofing. Found North 16 Year Old Cask Strength Rye Whisky exemplifies the third option – forget about making it “smooth” and instead make the whisky as robust and dynamic as possible. Found North started with herbaceous, 16 year old rye aged in Hungarian oak. They then blended in fruit-forward, 17 year old rye aged in ex-Speyside scotch casks. The combination revealed a smoldering symphony of spice. Last, they lengthened the finish and increased the viscosity by adding double-distilled corn whisky aged for 20 years in refill and level-2-char virgin oak. The final composition of 66% rye, 30% corn, and 4% malted barley is bottled non chill-filtered and additive free at a cask strength of 57.1% ABV.
