Cleveland Underground Black Cherry Wood Rye – 750ml

For generations, oak has been used to age spirits simply because it has the right pore structure to hold liquid. It’s hard, if not impossible, to make a barrel out of black cherry wood. As a result there are so many untapped flavor profiles. Our technology allows us to use “transformative” woods to capture those flavors, letting creativity and innovation shine.

Tasting Notes

The spiciness of a 95% rye mash bill coupled with our unique finishing capabilities yields a totally new twist on Rye Whiskey. Cleveland Underground™ Rye Whiskey Finished with Black Cherry Wood starts lightly sweet with notes of mellow oak, giving way to creamy vanilla and butterscotch, with undertones of baking spice and a candy-like, fruit forward finish. Soft on the front, spice on the way down, with the linger of dried cherries on the palate. No added sugar, artificial flavor or preservatives.
