Limousin Rye Whiskey 750mL is a distinctive rye whiskey finished in Limousin oak casks, a rare type of French oak traditionally used in Cognac production. The use of Limousin oak imparts unique spice, structure, and depth while enhancing the bold character of rye grain. This finishing technique creates a whiskey that blends classic rye spice with elegant oak influence.

Bold and expressive, it opens with aromas of baking spice, toasted oak, and vanilla, followed by notes of caramel, dried fruit, honey, and peppery rye spice. The Limousin oak finishing adds richness and complexity while maintaining balance, leading to a long, warming finish with lingering spice, oak sweetness, and subtle fruit.
