Description

The Wrecking Coast Distillery is owned by Stargazey Spirits, run by Paul and Joe Barber, and is based in Tintagel, Cornwall. The distillery produces a range of spirits including Gin, Rum & Whisky. This exceptional Wrecking Coast Rye Whiskey starts with the finest organic rye sourced from local farms along the rugged Cornish coastline. The rye is then double distilled in small batches using Wrecking Coast's signature copper pot stills to produce a smooth, richly flavoured spirit. After 8 patient years mellowing in American oak casks, the whisky finishes its journey in premium Oloroso sherry casks from Spain. [cite: Scotch Whisky Auctions, 2]

Nose
Rich & inviting, with notes of vanilla custard & caramelised sugar leading the way. Subtle hints of dried apricot, cinnamon spice & toasted oak add depth.
Palate
Classic rye spice - clove, nutmeg & a touch of white pepper - balanced by the creamy sweetness of the bourbon casks. Flavours of butterscotch, charred oak develops mid-palate, with a hint of dried tropical fruits & maple syrup weaving through.
Finish
Medium to long finish, with a lingering warmth of baking spices & toasted vanilla. The rye spice subtly fades into soft, buttery oakiness, leaving an impression of dried fruit & caramel.
