Rabbit Hole Founder’s Collection Boxergrail Kentucky Straight, 57.3%
A limited-edition release of Boxergrail, Rabbit Hole’s 95% rye, aged 6 years and bottled at barrel proof. Powdered sugar, glazed donuts, candied nuts, cherry, blackberry, and vanilla custard punctuate the nose. A rich, spiced palate offers notes of grape jelly and allspice, while water unlocks semi-sweet chocolate, licorice, honey-coated almonds, and toasted oak. A long finish anchored by balanced oak offers raspberry tart, baking spice, maple syrup, and tiramisu.
