Boatrocker Four Grain Australian Whisky (500ml)

Distilled from an American-inspired four grain mash (51% corn and 31% rye, the remainder barley and wheat). Four and a half years in high-char virgin wood reveals a tapestry of genteel, bready sweetness and delicate, understated spicy, rye input, the flavours also conjuring hay bails and water biscuits. There's a subtle rise of sugars at mid palate, with balancing oak providing a chewy backdrop. Arguably more like a premium blended Scotch than a typical Kentuckian, this skilfully composed, middle-weight style is suited to easy drinking or classic cocktails. 40% Alc./Vol.

Notes from the producers... The blend delivers layers of texture, sweetness and spice, enhanced by a unique American yeast strain...it's beautifully smooth.  Expect balanced notes of vanillin and brown sugar, sweetness from the corn, gentle rye spice and a hint of mint on the nose. The finish is long and rounded - perfect neat or in your favourite whiskey cocktail.  Whiskey sour anyone?
