“Amburana + Oloroso/PX sherry finish on a dual Indiana/N. Kentucky high-rye blend”

Tasting notes

nose
warm baking spice, golden honey, dried fruit, cinnamon, rye pepper
palate
high-rye bite balanced by raisin, fig, dark caramel from Oloroso/PX; Amburana’s nutty cinnamon through the mid
finish
spiced oak and dried fruit into honeyed warmth at structured 100

Mash bill

A blend of several whiskeys, so no single grain split.

A blend of two high-rye straight rye mash bills: Indiana rye at 95% rye / 5% malted barley married with Northern Kentucky rye at 91% rye / 9% malted barley. Both components sit well above the 51% rye floor — this is peppery, grain-forward rye structure before any secondary wood. Exact farm varieties and individual component ages beyond the 5–8 year band are not fully disclosed; the published dual mash is the transparency card.

Cask
New charred oak (straight rye aging), then finished in Brazilian Amburana and Oloroso/PX sherry casks
Finish
2–12 months in Brazilian Amburana hardwood plus Oloroso and PX sherry casks
Best served
versatile

Why it's craft

Independent Henderson-family brand (Saga Spirits Group) building a Versailles craft house; transparent dual high-rye mash and distinctive Amburana/sherry finish program on sourced straight rye while own distillate matures.
