10th Street STR is a non-peated American single malt from 10th Street Distillery in San Jose, California, made from 100% American malted barley and matured in shaved, toasted and re-charred (STR) casks, bottled at 46% ABV.
It is built from domestic two-row malted barley and double distilled in all-copper pot stills. The STR casks balance malt and wood influence, and non-chill filtration preserves the whisky's texture and complexity.
Light golden in colour, it is lightly spicy on the nose with overtones of sweet caramel and butterscotch. The palate offers complex, cherry-like sweetness with vanilla bean, nutmeg and clove, and the finish is smooth and round, full of candied fruit.
A bright Californian single malt, it makes a fine gift for whisky explorers.
Enjoy it neat or with a drop of water.
American whiskey covers a wide range of styles, from bourbon and rye to single malts and light whiskeys, and independent blenders and small producers have made it one of the most exciting categories in spirits.
American single malt whisky is made from 100% malted barley at a single distillery in the United States.
STR casks are former red wine barrels that are shaved, toasted and re-charred, a technique that unlocks fresh oak flavour and sweetness.
Non-chill filtering keeps the natural oils of the whisky for a fuller aroma and mouthfeel.
