Mad River Silver Oak Cellars Finished Rye Whiskey

Born from an innovative collaboration between Mad River Distillers and Boston-based Caskforce, this exceptional rye whiskey represents the perfect marriage of Vermont craftsmanship and Napa Valley wine heritage. Starting with Mad River's Revolution Rye—a bold 100% rye mashbill whiskey—this limited release undergoes a secondary maturation in Silver Oak Cellars' Cabernet Sauvignon barrels. The toasted American oak from the wine barrels creates a fascinating interplay with the charred oak notes from the whiskey's initial aging, resulting in heightened chocolate rye characteristics and a luxuriously smooth, velvety mouthfeel. With only five barrels produced in this small-batch release, each bottle captures the unique terroir of Vermont's rickhouse aging and the prestigious wine legacy of Silver Oak Cellars. The result is a sophisticated spirit that showcases roasted chocolate notes, enhanced complexity, and an unparalleled smoothness that appeals to both whiskey connoisseurs and wine enthusiasts alike.
