Slyrs Single Malt Sauternes Cask

Produced by SLYRS Distillery in Schliersee, Bavaria, SLYRS Single Malt Sauternes Cask Finish is a German single malt that combines Bavarian whisky-making with the influence of sweet French wine casks. The whisky first matures in American white oak before receiving at least 14 months of additional maturation in original Sauternes casks from Bordeaux. Bottled at 46% ABV, the Sauternes finish adds bright citrus, ripe fruit and honeyed sweetness to the whisky’s underlying malt, vanilla and spice character.

Food Pairing: Foie gras, blue cheese, fruit tart, crème brûlée, roasted poultry, or almond pastries with honey.

Tasting Notes: Sparkling honey-gold in appearance, with a fresh and fruit-forward character balancing citrus and sweet wine influence with vanilla, honey and warming spice.

Nose: Bright and aromatic, with fresh citrus and ripe fruit accompanied by gentle sweetness and underlying malt character.

Palate: Fruity and smooth, developing vanilla and honey alongside citrus, sweet malt and the rich influence of the Sauternes cask.

Finish: Long and warming, with lingering honeyed fruit, vanilla and rich spice.

Serve: Enjoy neat or slightly below room temperature to highlight its fresh fruit, honey and Sauternes-driven sweetness.
