The Block Distilling Co. Four Grain Straight Whiskey 750ml

The Block Distilling Co. Four Grain Straight Whiskey is bottled at 47.5% ABV from a mash built around wheat, rye, malted barley, and a notably high volume of oats, the grain that gives this whiskey its distinguishing character. The Block runs its whiskey through a single, short column still rather than the more common pot-still process, which allows tighter proof control during distillation. The oat-forward grain bill brings an earthy complexity and creamy mouthfeel that a standard corn-forward bourbon doesn't have, with a delicate nose leading into a rich, well-balanced palate and a smooth, lingering finish. It's a pick for whiskey drinkers curious about an oat-driven grain profile outside the usual corn, rye, and wheat lineup.

How to drink The Block Distilling Four Grain

Sip it neat first to catch the oat-driven creaminess that defines this whiskey — it's a texture that gets lost quickly with ice or a mixer. If you do want it cold, a single large cube is the furthest to take it before the earthy complexity thins out.
