Leopold Bros Three Chamber Bottle in Bond Rye Whiskey

Leopold Bros Three Chamber Bottle in Bond Rye Whiskey is a unique and historic revival of American rye whiskey. The whiskey is crafted using a painstakingly re-engineered Three Chamber Still, a standard method over a hundred years ago but ceased production after World War II. This method, combined with the heritage grain Abruzzi rye, resurrects a heavy-bodied whiskey style that had been lost to time.

This whiskey is a single-barrel offering, and was hand-selected by Todd Leopold, ensuring a rich aroma and a complex palate. The whiskey offers distinctive flavors, encapsulating the essence of an American classic.

Nose: The whiskey exudes fragrant aromas of orange peel, vanilla, peach, nutmeg, and toasted oak, filling the room with its presence. It also has a subtle hint of dill when air is taken into the mouth.

Palate: The palate is complex, starting with a burst of heat and spice, typical of its 100 proof. It then unfolds into notes of lavender, candied orange, chamomile, and bitter black tea. The mouthfeel is heavy and oily, enhancing the tasting experience.

Finish: The finish is long and oily, dominated by chamomile and black tea, rounding off the experience with a lasting impression.

This rye whiskey pairs well with rich and robust flavors. It can complement the spiciness of grilled meats or add depth to the sweetness of desserts like dark chocolate or fruit pies.
