Chattanooga whiskey is one of the best craft distilleries to call Tennessee at home, and one of the best periods in America depending on the quality of its main range of large scale bourbon and rye whiskeyas well as its larger experimental versions. The mixture of the 13th anniversary of the new founder enters this last category, and there are interesting components in the mixture of this year which distinguish it.
This innovative craft distillery was founded in 2011, becoming the first legal distillery in Chattanooga in more than a century. He is currently operating two distilleries: the Rivière distillery, which is the main production center, and the smallest experimental distillery. The founder's birthday mix is supervised by Chattanooga whiskey The founder Tim Piersant, and aims to bring together the past, the present and the future of the distillery of the two production sites.
For the release of this year, the 13th, it means mixing three whiskeys finished by different Solera – these come from tanks which are always filled with more recent whiskey to marry an older liquid instead of being emptied. “For those who follow the evolution of the founders in the past four years, the mixture of this year should offer a profile of flavor more focused on nostalgia highlighting more traditional notes coming from our barl Solera of 1816,” said Piersant in a press release. “For this reason, I would not be surprised if this version becomes a favorite among our purest and hard fans.”
The Solera Barrel of 1816 holds the whiskey that was used for the first version of the distillery in 2012. It is the smallest of the Solera barrels and includes 23% of the mixture of this year. 1816 is a high -yield bourbon who is four to six years old and is supposed to bring “a classic and slightly spicy wooden bourbon character” to the final mixture. The following component comes from Barrel 91, the largest of the three, and is the majority of the mixture at 58%. This represents the gift of the distillery because it is the nucleus of Bourbon de Malt raised from a mash-bill of three roasted and grilled grains personalized. Finally, there is a barrel Infinity (19% of the mixture), which is filled with Whiskies of Malt and Malt of rye produced in the two distilleries. According to a press release, the founder of this year has five new mashbits in the mixture, including a malt whiskey made from Italian coastal barley malt Italian and a different version of the Recipe of Rye Core 99. We could not taste the whiskey, but the official tasting notes describe the red liquorice, the grilled peaches, the cola The grilled marshmallow in the mouth.
