Oak & Eden Round Prairie Rye is a collaborative whiskey created with the Americana rock duo Jamestown Revival, a barrel-strength blended rye that is uncut and unaltered, bottled here at 116 proof (58% ABV).
The release is the intersection of great music and smooth whiskey. The base rye is aged in charred American oak barrels, which give it a balance of floral, liquorice and cinnamon notes.
Unlike traditional finished whiskey, Round Prairie is not finished in a secondary barrel but inside the bottle. Oak & Eden places a five-inch, spiral-cut piece of barrel wood, called a Spire, in each bottle to impart flavours not found in a single barrel alone. The Spire is cut from French oak, porous and rich, containing nearly twice the natural botanicals of American oak, and exposed to fire before it goes into the bottle.
A bold rye with a story, it makes a memorable gift for music and whiskey fans alike.
Enjoy it neat or with a splash of water.
