Rare Character Whiskey is a purveyor of fine American whiskey who have exclusive access to expressions that have never been released to the public.

“Old Mate” is the first set of single barrel selections outside of the USA, exclusively for the Australian market from the Rare Character Whiskey Company. On the palate, notes of brown sugar, cherry, spice - similar to a classic cherry soda fountain drink. Clove, liquorice, nutmeg, with a touch of citrus and tobacco on the finish. The heavy toast heads add to the richer spice and earthen notes. Spending time in all three environments, it’s quite a unique profile for this age and mashbill. While typically spice heavy and rye grain forward, the grain has aged out and more of the barrel influence comes forth. 

Aged 6 years, with a proof of 116.6 and 58.3% abv. Mash: 60 corn / 36 rye / 4 malt.
