This whiskey started out in new, charred American oak barrels that provides the robust caramel and vanilla notes which balance the spiciness of the rye.  After this initial aging, the whiskey is transferred into freshly emptied American “Sherry” wine casks from the distillery's own winery – Mazza Vineyards.  Because the “Sherry” casks came from Mazza Vineyards they were filled with whiskey within 24 hours of the wine being removed.

This ensures the freshness of the barrels which provides the maximum flavor and aroma impact.  The longer aging in these “Sherry” casks gives the whiskey a rich, nutty character that complements the spice and caramel notes of the rye whiskey.
