Whisky Gone A Rye #2 is a special edition of our Rye Malt Whisky matured in Australian apera casks and the sixteenth release in our Trials & Exceptions series. The Australian apera casks used to age this spirit were destined for maturing our Single Malt Whisky, but by happy accident, the 100 and 200-litre casks were instead filled with Rye Malt Whisky not once but three times. After the success of Whisky Gone A Rye #1, which was released in November 2021, we’re excited to share with you the second batch of this unique and limited whisky style.

This rich and complex Rye Malt Whisky is imbued with the flavours of high-quality Australian fortified wine in a way usually reserved for single malt, vs the tradition of maturing rye whisky in new American oak casks. This whisky therefore continues our tradition of marrying quality NSW grains with the rich, deep, fruit flavours of local apera casks.

Whisky Gone A Rye #2 displays enticing notes of honey-poached peaches, candied figs, vanilla crème brulée, sweet baking spices and lingering oak.
