Backwoods Rye is crafted from a Heritage Ryecorn grain, once growing wild and now grown and malted exclusively by Voyager Craft Malt in the Riverina region. The mash bill contains 60% malted rye, then 27% barley, 10% wheat and 3% chocolate malt. The whisky is a vatting of two 100L American oak casks that previously held Australian Cabernet and Shiraz.
