OUR INTERPRETATION OF A NORDIC RYE

Our Nordic interpretation of a rye whisky made with all malted spelt, rye and barley. Utilizing several of the grains of our organic crop rotation, integral to regenerative farming principles, and in part inspired by the long-going Danish tradition for rye bread and new found affection for ancient wheats in baking. Spelt-Rye is showcasing what a careful organic grain selection, in-house malting and exploring new mashbills can do for a whisky.

Matured on new American oak casks it delivers a smooth, spicy and floral palate with an elegant cask balance with aromas of warm vanilla, rose pepper, cream caramel, citrus and heather blossoms.
