Barrel Finishing Series: Moldovan Ice Wine Cask Finished
Our limited edition Barrel Finishing Series celebrates the union of Tennessee High Malt into a variety of classic finishing casks. Crafted from a combination of unique whiskey mash bills - all containing at least 25% specialty malted grains - each batch is custom-made to complement the flavor and aroma characteristics of the finishing barrel.
For this finish, our distillers turned to Eastern Europe—this time to ice wine casks from one of Moldova's oldest wineries, set in the hills above the Black Sea. Ice wine is one of the rarest sweet wines in the world: the grapes are handpicked in the dead of winter and pressed while still frozen, yielding just a few precious drops of intensely concentrated juice from each cluster. These casks bring layered notes of dried apricot, honey, and soft oak to the whiskey—a taste of deep winter, enjoyable even in the heat of summer.
To carry the character of these finishing barrels, our distillers assembled a complex blend of six mash bills: five malt whiskeys and one bourbon. These recipes draw from a range of toasted specialty malts: a malted barley grown on Italy's coast near Venice, and two types of malted wheat, which together build a rich, bready backbone reminiscent of French toast. Together, these malts give the whiskey enough richness to match the ice wine's bright sweetness and aromatic fruit character.
