Barrell Craft Spirits – Seagrass Whiskey 750ml

Barrell Craft Spirits – Seagrass Whiskey

Barrell Seagrass is an extraordinary and highly acclaimed American whiskey that pushes the boundaries of traditional finishing. This unique release is a blend of American and Canadian rye whiskeys, meticulously selected and then finished in a trio of exotic casks: Apricot Brandy barrels, Madeira wine barrels, and Martinique Rhum Agricole casks. The result is a vibrant, fruit-forward, and remarkably complex whiskey that defies expectations, offering a tropical, herbaceous, and sweet symphony of flavors that truly captures the essence of “seashore and grassland.”

Tasting Notes:

• Aroma: Bright and highly aromatic with prominent notes of ripe apricot, peach, and tropical fruits (pineapple, mango), intertwined with fresh herbal rye notes, sweet honey, and a hint of salinity.
• Flavor: An explosion of fruit initially, with juicy apricot, candied orange peel, and tropical sweetness from the Madeira and Rhum. The rye spice emerges beautifully, offering notes of mint, fennel, and a peppery kick, all balanced by a rich honeyed sweetness and a touch of brininess.
• Mouthfeel: Medium to full-bodied, incredibly vibrant and lively, with a luxurious viscosity that coats the palate.
• Finish: Exceptionally long, complex, and evolving, with lingering notes of tropical fruit, herbaceous rye, a pleasant sweetness, and a subtle brininess that invites another sip.
