LJ BARREL - LJ/MBA OLD ELK RUM CASK FINISHED RYE

12/1/2022

LJ/MBA OLD ELK RUM CASK FINISHED RYE 750ML 3P

First in finished Rye barrel from Old Elk has arrived!!!

LJ/MBA OLD ELK RUM CASK FINISHED RYE 750ML

Company on Label: Old Elk

Whiskey Type: Finished Straight Rye Whiskey

Mash Bill Percentages: 95% Rye, 5% Malted Barley

Proof: 100.9°

Age: 5 years

Further identification: This is an upcoming barrel pick from Mass Bourbon Alliance in collaboration with Liquor Junction (@LJWhiskeyFamily) out of Reading, MA; expect this sometime in the Winter of 2022. It has a 'distilled in Indiana' statement & it comes from barrel 5019.

Nose :- From a distance I can smell delectable, sugary vanilla frosting wafting off the glass. Raising the glass to my nose I find a bouquet of lovely floral, sweet, traditional rye. It's nuanced with touches of raisin, elderberry, honeysuckle and grapefruit blossom. There's a citrus characteristic that is subdued, but delicious so I find myself digging deep with strong inhales. The nose-feel is incredibly soft, silky, and delicate - though that may have some part to do with the temperature of my whiskey that has acclimated towards something nearing the outside temperature of 57°. A brief swirl of the glass builds out the barrel influence as oak and light caramel begins to enter the mix. Eucalyptus brings just a touch of mint to the experience, though it's layered well with honey, vanilla and crème fraiche.

Palate :- My first sip is so creamy upfront; it's like a mouthful of whipped cream! Cherry immediately follows and slides down my chest like a delicious jello shot. The linger is impossibly long on this sip and it sticks around in fruitful, tasty ways. Strawberry, raisin and raspberry jam all meld very well and feels like there is great continuity from the nose. Another sip and swish shows off bright, zest lemon alongside grape skins and peach. Oh wow... the creamy vanilla bean flavor that rips across your tongue on this is worth every penny of the price of admission. The funky sweetness from the rum barrel are finally starting to shine through later in the glass as well - it took some time to build. My last sip is again incredibly creamy with confectioners sugar, light raisin bread, muddled maraschino cherries and a touch of raspberry. The linger continues on in one constant wave that doesn't change in magnitude but emanates in every direction. Overall this is balanced & elegant.
