Slyrs Bavarian Rye Whisky

Produced by SLYRS Distillery in Schliersee, Bavaria, SLYRS Bavarian Rye is a German rye whisky built around a three-grain mash of rye, barley and wheat. Rye is the dominant grain, contributing a mildly sweet and spicy character, while barley and wheat round out the profile. Bottled at 41% ABV, it offers an approachable combination of ripe fruit, cinnamon, liquorice and allspice followed by a dry, peppery finish.

Food Pairing: Roast pork, grilled sausages, aged Alpine cheese, apple strudel, roasted nuts, or dark chocolate with warming spices.

Tasting Notes: Light golden yellow with a mild, sweet-spicy profile combining ripe fruit, liquorice, cinnamon and allspice with a subtly dry peppery character.

Nose: Very fruity and inviting, led by ripe fruit with a light touch of cinnamon and underlying grain sweetness.

Palate: Pleasantly mild and balanced, with sweet rye character accompanied by liquorice, cinnamon and allspice, developing a gently herbal and spicy quality.

Finish: Long and subtly dry, with lingering pepper, gentle spice and a balanced grain-driven sweetness.

Serve: Enjoy neat and slightly chilled, as recommended by SLYRS; it can also work well in rye-forward cocktails where its fruit and spice character can remain prominent.
