Taconic Founders Rye
This young rye doesn’t disappoint with flavorful notes “like summer fruit just before full ripeness…this is a fine sipping Rye.”
Taconic uses distinct Coopers Select, Char #3 new oak barrels made by the Independent Stave Company. Their barrels have a unique maturation process; aged in shipping containers. Less is lost to the angel’s share, due to the saturation of the air inside the containers. Being exposed to great temperature fluctuations, results in greater movement of spirit in and out of the barrel staves. Aging occurs in cycles, during times of increased temperature such as in the summer, the whiskey expands through the char, through to the untreated wood beneath. While in the wood, the whiskey dissolves various flavorful compounds. When temperatures drop, the liquid contracts and brings out all of the flavors of the wood, producing flavors that complement the body of the whiskey. Named after the US founding fathers, Taconic’s Rye Whiskey is aged in virgin American white oak barrels until golden caramel in color.
