This collaboration is a series of Rye expressions anchored by a very low-content (51%) rye whiskey aged for 6 years in new American oak. Starting from a place of sweet more than spice, and going from there. No barrel finishes, no gimmicks. Straightforward and balanced rye.
Batch 1 and 2 of the Project is in collaboration with Willett Family Estate. Wolves and Willett Master Distiller Drew Kulsveen selected barrels of 7 and 6 year straight Rye whiskey with a 74% Rye mashbill from House A, South Rick 14, and House H, South Rick 6. Between the the 51% Rye and the Family Estate Rye barrels, balance was found in a Willett-dominant blend and at 51.5% ABV for Batch 1 and 57.35% for Batch 2.
