Official tasting notes
Bright gold appearance. Immediately appealing and distinctive with its dill / pickle opening scents. Second pass offers chamomile tea, hints of boiled lolly, cedary oak and peppermint. A light, silky entry follows through to a super smooth and quite delicate profile featuring medium dry flavours of chamomile tea, sour dough bread and unusual notes of dill and caraway. Dry, mildly tannic finish. Aftertaste is subtle but shows good length.

Description
The Belgrove Distillery is the first Rye Distillery to open in Australia and is the only Australian self-sustaining distillery which is owned and operated by Peter Bignell. He applied his sculpting and engineering skills to build his own 500 litre copper pot still which he directly fires with biofuel (used cooking oil) from a roadhouse next to his farm.
This 46%alc 500ml Belgrove 100% Rye Whisky is a marriage of 5 barrels that previously held Muscat, Shiraz, 2 Overeem and a 50L Rye refill that has an abundance of woody notes.
