ASW Distillery's Fiddler Toasted Rye is a cask-strength rye whiskey crafted from a mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley. This expression undergoes aging in new, charred American white oak barrels with varying char levels, followed by a finishing period in toasted barrels with light, medium, and heavy toast levels.
The finishing process imparts a complex flavor profile, featuring notes of elegant citrus, layered spices, toasted vanilla bean, and gingerbread cookies. Bottled at cask strength, Fiddler Toasted Rye offers a robust and balanced tasting experience, with a toasted maple foundation that keeps the flavors in harmony.
ASW Distillery, founded in 2016 by co-founders Jim Chasteen and Charlie Thompson, is a prominent craft distillery located in Atlanta, Georgia. It holds the distinction of being the second legally licensed distillery in Atlanta since the end of Prohibition and is renowned for distilling the city's first single malt whiskey.
