Found North Hell Diver 2025

From Found North Whisky:

Hover Hawk started as a blend of 15 and 18 year old rye with 22, 23, 24 and 27 year old corn components. We had a vision for how Hover Hawk would fit into the High Altitude Collection, defined by our practice of blend, finish, reblend. The core blend was well-suited to the sweet

and citric qualities of our planned finishing casks, Moscatel and New American Oak. We formed a foundation of fruit notes that could fully blossom with the Moscatel influence and was accentuated by the softer tannins and vanillins from the New American Oak casks.

Following four additional months of maturation, we selected the best casks for the final vatting. Hover Hawk, in its final form, is vivacious and decadent, capturing the bright, lively white fruit of the Moscatel and the soft caramel of New American Oak. It sets a new stylistic pillar in our High Altitude Collection.

The flush of white fruit, citrus and blackberry on the nose land thick and viscous, presenting the melting fruity texture of a perfectly ripe golden kiwi and the mouth-watering residual sweetness of cantaloupe. This combination of viscosity and sweetness adheres to the palate, creating an underlying foundation that lingers through the mid-palate and into the finish.
