Special Features:
Legacy Rye draws on the historic Maryland style with a grain recipe combining rye, corn and malted barley. This three-year-old Australian rye whiskey contains 59% Murray Mallee rye, 35% Australian corn and 6% Australian malted barley. A heavily toasted and heavily charred cask positioned in the middle of the warehouse was chosen to achieve particularly even maturation. The whiskey is bottled at 56%, without chill filtration or added colouring.
Orange marmalade and lemon cream sit alongside toasted cedar, burnt toffee, fig and Leatherwood honey. These citrus, wood and sweet notes complement the whiskey’s creamy, spicy character. Legacy Rye is part of the Project Releases and celebrates the shared development work of Andrew Fitzgerald and Ben Bowles, as well as their enthusiasm for American whiskey styles.
Tasting Notes:
Distillery/Bottler:
The Gospel was founded by Ben Bowles and Andrew Fitzgerald, who started Melbourne Moonshine in South Melbourne in 2016. In their first small distillery, they used milk tanks as fermentation vessels and directly heated stills. When experimenting with American-inspired grain recipes, they had to filter the mash by hand to prevent the grain solids from scorching during distillation. These experiences informed the design of their rye distillery in Brunswick, Melbourne.
The Brunswick facility was designed specifically to process rye, with a hammer mill, mash vessel and purpose-built column still at its technical core. When developing their rye whiskey, the founders focused on unmalted rye from a single farm in the Murray Mallee. Legacy Rye comes from The Gospel Distillery and, with its blend of rye, corn and malted barley, builds on their early experiments with American whiskey styles.
