George Dickel is teaming up with Leopold Bros. to produce an innovative Rye Whisky offering. The release will blend Leopold Bros' Three Chamber Rye with George Dickel's column still rye produced at Cascade Distillery to recreate a historic style. Todd Leopold, the master distiller of Leopold Bros. had an idea for a new rye product that required column distilled rye. He called George Dickel’s master distiller Nicole Austin to see if she knew where he could get his hands on some, and it just so happens they were quietly developing one. The collaboration between the two companies was born. According to Austin on George Dickel’s website, “The thing that makes this collaboration special is there is a reason and a context for it to exist that goes way beyond our friendship. There is a historical context for this whiskey. It’s really a resurrection of a lost style. Collaborations in spirits are quite rare, particularly in the whiskey space.” The label states that this is the “Inaugural Release” signaling additional releases are possible. NOSE A creamy malt scent with a herbal underpinning is soft and welcoming. Leaning more sweet thanks to additional scents of vanilla and cinnamon roll frosting, it’s also not without moments of pungent spice and cinnamon bark. A touch of raw cedar against an infusion of additional baking spice, creates an aroma that is quite inviting. Yet, it’s the aroma’s herbal aspect that’s weaved throughout that provides the whiskey’s nose with ample depth and flair. PALATE Creamy malt returns, but in a tangible sense. Buttery and even oily at times, the palate is also somehow light and feathery. It accomplishes this by being delicate, offering notes of sweet cream, buttercream, and caramel apple gracefully. With the return of herbal notes in the form of sage and green tea, the sip manages to continually surprise you when you least expect it. Tasting lower than its proof allows the rye to be quite approachable. FINISH A beautiful crescendo of heat filled with rye spice and cinnamon drives this whiskey home. The sudden pop of oak, chai tea, nutmeg, butter, and baked apples proves to be a satisfying combination. A twinge of herbal notes continues into the aftertaste, and acts as more of a reminder of what has come before than an active component of the finish. A well done ending to the sip allowing it to close out on an excellent note.
