A single barrel, rather hearty straight rye selected by Whisky Hunt Australia from Nashville Barrel Company. This release, the Pennyrye, is a 6 year old, 95% Rye mash single cask, and was chosen to be this year's halloween bottling! Rumour has it that fans of Tennessee whiskey often go missing around Nashville, lured into the sewers by a clown named Pennyrye, who offers exclusive drams, and single cask samples... Thankfully, WHA only lost half the tasting panel when picking this excellent cask.

From WHA...
"Cofounders Mike Hinds & James Davenport hosted the WHA barrel pick crew as we tasted through several barrels in their on-site tasting room, fitted out with experimental barrels aging away! This 95/5 MGP classic rye mashbill jumped out as a winner!
Legend has it Nashville whiskey fans have been disappearing, lost down in the sewage system canals following a green clown know only as, Pennyrye! The clown lures its victims with promise of rare whiskey and barrel picks!
"Pennyrye" comes with a custom sticker, turn the lights out after a few drams and see what happens! "
