Hillrock Single Malt Whiskey OPX 750ml

Hillrock Estate Distillery in the Hudson Valley is one of the few American whiskey producers that floor-malts its own barley on-site, a labor-intensive traditional process most distilleries abandoned decades ago in favor of buying malt pre-made. OPX is their single malt whiskey, made entirely from that estate-grown and floor-malted barley rather than the corn-heavy mash most American whiskey relies on. The result reads closer to a Scotch-style single malt than a typical bourbon, with real malt character, oak, and dried fruit rather than corn sweetness. A genuinely serious, grain-to-glass release from a distillery that leans hard into old-world technique on a small New York estate.

How to drink Hillrock Single Malt OPX

Drink it neat first, the way you'd approach a Scotch single malt, since that's the closest comparison for this style. A few drops of water can open up the malt character if it feels tight.
