Proof and Wood The Stranger 7 Year Polish Rye Whiskey
Proof and Wood The Stranger 7 Year Polish Rye Whiskey is a rye from an unexpected place. Dave Schmier's Proof and Wood Ventures, the independent bottler behind Deadwood and The Ambassador, found this 100% rye whiskey at Kozuba & Sons in Poland, a country with centuries of rye-growing and rye-distilling tradition but almost no presence on American whiskey shelves. The whiskey was distilled in Poland from 100% rye, then shipped to the United States and aged in ex-bourbon and ex-rye barrels for seven years.
Bottled at 100 proof in a batch of just ten barrels, The Stranger shows what rye tastes like without the new-oak influence that defines American straight rye. Boston Rye rated it 75 out of 100, or Great, describing a cool, herbal nose of wintergreen and clove, spearmint and sweet caramel with rye bread crust on the palate, and a surprisingly fruity finish with mango and lingering spice, while noting the body is lighter than a Kentucky rye. A fascinating pour for rye geeks and a great conversation bottle for a tasting flight.
