Minor Case Sherry Cask Finish Straight Rye Whiskey is a distinctive American rye whiskey produced by Limestone Branch Distillery in Kentucky, USA. Named in honour of Minor Case Beam, a member of the legendary Beam whiskey family, this unique expression combines the bold spice of traditional rye whiskey with the rich elegance of sherry cask finishing.

After initial maturation in new charred American oak barrels, the whiskey is carefully finished in Oloroso sherry casks, adding layers of complexity and depth. The nose is rich and inviting, offering aromas of dried fruit, caramel, vanilla, baking spices, and toasted oak. On the palate, it is smooth and well-balanced, revealing flavours of rye spice, raisins, dark cherries, honey, toffee, roasted nuts, and subtle chocolate notes. The sherry finish beautifully complements the rye character, creating a harmonious balance between sweetness and spice.

The finish is long, warming, and elegant, with lingering notes of dried fruit, oak, cinnamon, and gentle sweetness. Ideal enjoyed neat, over ice, or in premium whiskey cocktails, Minor Case Sherry Cask Finish offers a refined and approachable take on American rye whiskey.
