Hudson Whiskey is celebrating the fall via the release of its New York Rye Whiskey Calvados Cask Finish.
The third significantly aged Hudson expression is a blend of 95% rye and 5% malted barley, sourced locally from Hudson Valley farms. It spent at least 3.5 years in new American oak barrels before maturing for an additional 3.5 years in casks that previously held Calvados – a refined apple brandy produced exclusively in Normandy, France.
“When we had the chance to acquire casks that once held Calvados, we saw an opportunity to craft a whiskey that embodies the bold, innovative spirit of Hudson Whiskey and New York itself,” said Hudson Whiskey Master Blender Brian Kinsman. “This new rye pays homage to the state, from the orchards of the Hudson Valley to the iconic Big Apple. As the Hudson Whiskey portfolio continues to grow, we’re committed to expanding its offerings with aged expressions that reflect its proud, bold New York heritage.”
Hudson New York Rye Whiskey Calvados Cask Finish is available nationwide for $69.99.
