Description
Hillrock is proud to be one of the few “field-to-glass” whiskey producers in the world and the first USA distillery since before Prohibition to floor malt and handcraft whiskey on site from estate-grown grain. Hillrock’s commitment to quality embodies the rich history of artisanal distilling in the Hudson Valley. By controlling every aspect of production from planting & harvesting heirloom grains, to smoking our malt, to crafting whiskies in our copper pot still, to aging in small oak barrels and hand bottling, we are able to create the highest quality whiskies reflecting the unique local terroir.
Taste
This whiskey was handcrafted from 100% estate grain, which was sustainably grown, milled, mashed, pot distilled, aged, and hand bottled all on the Hillrock Estate. After aging in both, #3 char and #4 Char American oak casks for over five years, this Double Cask Bourbon was bottled in bond at 100 proof.
Brand Tasting Notes: This dark amber whiskey displays a complex aroma of warm gingerbread, vanilla bean, hazelnuts, and oak with hints of nutmeg and butterscotch. The palate is rich and round, with bright flavors of cinnamon and vanilla leading to honey-roasted nuts and dark chocolate, integrating a creamy texture that is complemented by warm caramel with a finish that continues revealing layers of buttered toffee and baking spices.
Holly’s Tasting Notes: The palate has chocolate, cream, chocolate mousse, oats, and toasted honeyed oatmeal with chocolate sprinkled on top.
