TULLAHOMA, Tenn., Dec. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- With the
holiday season underway, the hunt has begun for the ideal gift,
especially for those hardest to buy for on the list. Cascade Hollow
Distilling Co. General Manager and Distiller Nicole Austin is
releasing a premium rye whisky, perfect for the whisky afficionado
in your life. Cascade Moon 13 Year Old Rye is an extremely rare
release, available in select U.S. markets starting this
month.
Hand-selected by Austin, this
Cascade Moon release complements the series by offering a complex
and mature rye addition to the lineup. The barrels containing aging
rye arrived at Cascade Hollow in 2012, where they spent nearly a
decade in Cascade Hollow's single-story rickhouses. As a result of
the temperate conditions, the barrels matured gracefully, bringing
the beautiful and unique notes of the whisky forward.
"The Cascade Moon series is a collection of some of our most
unique and rare whiskies. Each release has its own unique story
behind the innovation and mastery of its making," said Austin. "With this release, I'm excited to
offer drinkers a beautifully aged rye whisky unlike anything else
we've released in the series."
At 100 proof (50% ABV), this sophisticated, mature rye is best
enjoyed neat and in moderation to realize the full flavor profile
and taste the unique notes of the whisky. This 13 year old whisky
offers sweet notes of vanilla, toffee, leather and nutmeg with a
smooth, oaky finished.
The debut of Cascade Moon 13 Year Old Rye comes off the heels of
two award-winning Cascade Moon variants released at the end of 2020
in celebration of the 150-year anniversary of George A. Dickel & Co. Cascade Moon series
pays homage to the distillery's history, while continuing to set
the tone for the future of the whisky category. The Cascade Moon 13
Year Old Rye will start rolling out on shelves in Tennessee, Texas and California for a limited-time only at a
suggested retail price of $299.
As we celebrate the holidays, your friends at Cascade Hollow
encourage you to sip this new offering the same way it's made –
slowly and responsibly.
