This whiskey started out in new, charred American oak barrels that provide the robust caramel and vanilla notes which balance the spiciness of the rye. After this initial aging, the whiskey is transferred into freshly emptied American “Sherry” wine casks from our own winery – Mazza Vineyards. The longer aging in these “Sherry” casks gives the whiskey a rich, nutty character that complements the spice and caramel notes of the rye whiskey. Rated 2019 NY Int'l Spirits Comp. NY Rye Distillery of the Year
