Fiddler Toasted Rye 8 years Old Toasted Rye Small Batch Whiskey 750ml

ASW Distillery's Fiddler Toasted Rye represents a masterful reinterpretation of classic American rye whiskey, featuring a 95% rye and 5% malted barley mash bill that captures the purest expression of the grain. Aged for eight years in charred white oak barrels before receiving a meticulous finishing in toasted barrels of varying toast levels, this small-batch, cask-strength expression showcases layers of sophistication that honor tradition while adding refined complexity:

• Finished for 3 years and 4 months in toasted barrels with light, medium, and heavy toast profiles, allowing ample time for the secondary toasting to impart elegant citrus, gingerbread spice, toasted vanilla bean, and charred maple notes while deepening the bourbon barrel's foundation

This extended finishing period allows the toasting process to fully integrate with the rye's characteristic spice profile, creating a harmonious interplay between grain-forward spice and the warm sweetness of oak toasting. At 56.1% ABV, non-chill-filtered and bottled at cask strength, this is a rye that proves ASW's commitment to meticulous craftsmanship and bold flavor expression—a pour that rewards both newcomers to rye and experienced enthusiasts seeking genuine complexity.
