Tasting Notes

Barrell Craft Spirits Seagrass is an adventurous rye whiskey finished in a combination of Martinique rum, Madeira, and apricot brandy casks, resulting in a vibrant and layered flavor profile. The nose is bright and complex, offering aromas of tropical fruit, citrus zest, and sweet spice over a base of rye grain. On the palate, it is bold and expressive, delivering flavors of pear, apricot, and honey balanced by rye spice, caramel, and hints of oak. The unique cask finishes add depth and sweetness, leading into a long, lively finish with lingering fruit, spice, and a touch of salinity.

Food Pairings

As a starter, pair it with prosciutto-wrapped melon, spiced nuts, or grilled shrimp skewers. For a main course, it complements roasted duck, glazed pork tenderloin, or seafood paella with citrus. In the cheese course, creamy goat cheese, manchego, or aged gouda bring out its fruit-forward complexity. For dessert, it pairs beautifully with apricot tart, lemon bars, or tropical fruit sorbet.
