Old Potrero 18th Century Style Pot Distilled Whiskey

Produced at the Anchor Distillery in San Fransisco, Old Potrero whiskies are made with 100% malted rye. The whiskies are an attempt to re-create the original whiskey of America during the 18th Century, when Rye was the principal grain.

Tasting Notes

A cinnamon, nutmeg and peppery nose immediately thrusts the spicy signature of rye into the forefront of the conversation, with the savoury palate and moreishly dry finish confirming this impression. The gentle toasting of the barrels allows the oak to speak more quietly than in many American whiskies, moving more towards complex pecan and walnut, rather than luxuriant macadamia.
