Story : Our first 'Whiskey from a wash' titled 'Great Southern Grain Series One' saw Distrikt Whiskey collaborate with Lucky Bay Brewing in the town of Esperance, WA.
We created a recipe practicing sustainable fermentation techniques with 100% unmalted local grains and the substitution of Esperance Honey and the use of freeze dried LACTO-bacillius in the fermentation process. This allowed us to accentuate natural grain, promote efficiency in time and cost, eliminate unnecessary transport and unveiled notes and profiles in the new make spirit to distill and mature to set parameters of a classic Australian Straight Rye Whiskey. The grain bill comprised 61% local, unmalted farmer's rye and 39% unmalted local barley following on from an alternate rhythm to become 'Malt Zero' matured in a 100% new Single American Oak Cask for 2.5 years.
Eyes : Caramel, black raspberry sheen.
Nose : Pastry apple strudel with prolific cinnamon, maple, rye & cereal grain with toffee, fine charry tannin, tinned peach syrup & oak undertones. Vanilla bean & dried candied fruit.
Finish : Baked waffles, cloves, warming but not hot with a long lingering mouthfeel. Chewy tannins & caramel sauce.
With the use of a pipette or 'pure' ice the long 'range' of the whiskey can be explored & appreciated at much lower abv's.
Cask strength recommended for the collector & whiskey enthusiast
58 Bottles in existence // Hand numbered
59.2% abv / 118.4 proof
NB: Free shipping
