Chestnut Cask

@agitatorwhisky is a Swedish whisky distillery with a focus on unusual and even experimental whisky. This starts with the vacuum distillation allowing for a more gentle treatment of the grain and greater energy efficiency, and it goes on with interesting grain and cask selections.
The Argument Kastanj is part of their core range and it is indeed not very often to see completely chestnut cask matured whiskies, much less in the core range.
_
And the cask really did some good work: it is very intense, super sweet with burned sugar and chocolate, plus dried dates, figs and grapes.
There is also a very noticeable smoke aroma, not peaty at all, but the scent of burned wood that some American whiskeys have, just far stronger. All the while it is quite smooth.
The finish is not as long as I would have liked but still.
_
It is a good whisky and you can get with a discount now: AGITATOR20

Totally worth it. Here is the link (to all three core range products:)

So, we love rye, MPG and @georgedickel are our favourite distilleries and this is an MPG rye distillate to be charcoal filtered and matured by GD. Is this our dream come true?

In short, no. While just as mellow as any other GD, and thus a rather accessible rye whisky, the strong filtration took away a bit too much from the spiciness of the rye. It is still nice, and curiously enough the herbal nature of MPG’s rye is emphasized. But if we want mild and mellow from Dickel, we chose their corn based whisky, and if we want strong rye from MPG, we go there. Anyway:
_
Nose: a herb garden in spring with lots of mint, dill and thyme, plus a fresh grassy note, and a little citrus juice. Vanilla and hazelnut in the background.

Palate: super smooth, but somewhat more spicy with clove and cardamom. Now hazelnut cream and vanilla pudding with honey topping; the herbs remain dominant, though

Finish: even more spicy, almost peppery, as if to remind you it is rye after all...
_
This was the penultimate instalment of our GD-series. The last post will dive into yet another controversy surrounding GD.

@traditionsbrennerei Nordhausen is the big name of German distilling history, going as far back as 1507. And distilling rye was part of that history as was maturing that spirit in wooden barrels, although that tradition was lost (relatively recent actually). It is in fact that very tradition that sparked the emergence of rye whisky in the US, started by German emigrants.
So for Nordhausen to release a rye is not out of the norm even if they are better known for their clear spirits these days.
_
And the whisky is excellent. Looking back on our review of December last year, the praise is still more than deserved. The balance between the spicy distillate and the sweetness of a medium toasted barrel is amazing, the depth and complexity it got from no less than ten years of maturation provides layers upon layers of aromas and taste.
_
The whisky is not available anymore since it was sold out in days, but in the vaults of Nordhausen more barrels filled with rye whisky lay waiting for the next release.
