Tasting Notes: Notes of fresh baked cherry pie, cranberry, cardamom, and nutmeg on the nose. The palate is rich with flavors of buttered brown sugar crumbles, tart cherries, and a berry medley jam, while the finish lingers with hints of cherry pipe tobacco, charred oak, and a touch of sweet habanero pepper.
About: This release represents the culmination of an extensive experimentation phase. Over 40 different oak experiments were conducted to find a profile that worked in perfect harmony with their Pursuit United Rye. The team tested various oak profiles along with different toast and char levels to determine the ideal combination for this initial release. The finished product boasts a rich mahogany color and full-bodied flavor showcasing an oak profile with whiskeys three times its age, but at Pursuit’s signature 108 proof point.
“This Double Oaked Rye is the result of relentless experimentation and our unwavering commitment to quality,” said Ryan Cecil, Co-Founder and Master Blender at Pursuit Spirits. “For this product, we wanted to push the boundaries of what rye whiskey can be and compete with the best older whiskeys out there. At 108 proof, it delivers a bold yet balanced experience that we believe will captivate both rye enthusiasts and those new to the category. This limited release truly embodies our pursuit of whiskey excellence.”
