The Gospel Projects Legacy Rye Whiskey 700ml

When it comes to cask selection, the team at Gospel want to know the journey each takes before arriving at their distillery. Whether it's the forest where the oak is sourced or, in the case of their second fill barrels, the producer that previously filled it. 

Locally owned & produced Rye Whiskey made from 100% Australian grown un-malted rye from a single farm in the Murray Mallee region of South Australia, one of the driest regions of the driest country in the world. Specifically chosen for its harsh climate, the rye from this area is small and dense – renowned for its distinct, extraordinary flavour and is unmatched by rye from other areas. 

Legacy Rye is a dedication to Andrew and Ben’s great love of American-style whiskeys and their collaborative journey to produce deliciously unpretentious whiskey. The Legacy Rye is a whiskey reminiscent of Maryland style ryes double distilled from a mash bill 59% Mallee Rye, 35% Australian Corn and 6% Australian Malt Barley - a whiskey reminiscent of Maryland style ryes. It was then aged in a heavy toast and high char cask in the middle of the bond store for 3 years, providing a very consistent maturation profile.

With notes of orange marmalade, lemon curd, toasted cedar, burnt toffee, fig and leatherwood honey, Legacy Rye is best enjoyed neat.
