The extended fermentation converts sharper malic acids into softer lactic acids for a gentler, more fruit-driven rye. It earned first place for Best World Rye Whisky at the International Whisky Competition and 92 points (Highly Recommended) at the 2016 Ultimate Spirits Challenge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpiced apple pie and poached peach lead the aroma.
