Product description
Copper Fox Distillery was founded by Rick Wasmund in 2005 in Sperryville, Virginia. It is equipped with two small pot stills and produces malt whisky, corn whisky and rye whisky.
The distillery has own small malting facility where barley is malted using blend of fruit and hard woods. Copper Fox Rye is distilled from mash composed of 2/3 Virginia grown rye and 1/3 hand malted barley (60% of malt is smoked with apple wood and 40% with cherry wood).
The set presented here consists of a two liter charred American oak mini barrel with bung and spout and two 700ml bottles of Wasmund’s rye spirit aged less than 30 days.
“Copper Fox Barrel Kit provides a uniquely creative opportunity for the casual or professional mixologist or the true whisky connoisseur. Barrels are intended to be used for multiple fills, with the layers of flavors and complexities evolving with each use. Initially the barrels will age the spirit more like bourbon with subsequent fills shifting to a more Scotch-like finish.”
