'Reisetbauer & Son' Whisky 7yr (W/ Gift Box), Hans Reisetbauer

• Single malt whisky produced by Hans Reisetbauer and his son, Hansi Jr., in Axberg, Austria • Distilled from 100% organic, estate-grown barley grown on the Reisetbauer family farm under the supervision of Hansi Jr. • Malted barley mash is fermented in stainless steel tanks for 70 hours • Distilled in a Christian Carl copper pot still • Aged 7 years in both used Chardonnay and Trockenbeerenauslese (TBA) barrels sourced from local Austrian winemakers • The nose leads with aromas of red apple skin, fennel, honey, dry hay, wet clay, and dill; the palate is a tad bit spicier than Reisetbauer & Son’s older expressions, bursting with apples and cinnamon along with clove, white pepper, and hint of mint which transitions to a dry finish of black tea and peanut. • Non-chill filtered; 43% ABV Reisetbauer & Son’s 7-year-old whisky is an exemplary showcase of Austrian single malt whisky. The time spent in a combination of used Trockenbeerenauslese (an Austrian dessert wine) and Chardonnay barrels imparts a bright, fruity complexity and silky texture.
