NASHVILLE, Tenn. –– Outsiders Spirits announced the wider release of its third whiskey today - Whiskey JYPSI Legacy Batch 002: "The Alchemist." This follows a successful limited, early release this spring which was lauded by critics and fans alike. In addition to being a wider release, the bottle will also come in a special gift tube perfect for the holiday season.

The whiskey is the company's second release in their acclaimed Legacy Series, which blends rare whiskeys in limited, one-of-a-kind batches that cannot be replicated. Outsiders' first release, Whiskey JYPSI Legacy Batch 001: "The Journey," garnered Double Gold honors in the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

"While our Legacy releases are limited, anyone can get a bottle as long as they last," said Outsiders co-founder and owner Raj Alva. "And every release is different from the one before it, so each batch is unique in flavor profile, complexity, proof and blend."

"The Alchemist" builds on Batch 001's award-winning approach of cross-category blending to create reconstructed mash bills, with 3 mature whiskeys - each over 10 years old – sourced from 3 different countries, and the added element of an inspired triple-barrel finish for the rye. All reconstructed into a 114.3 proof high-rye mash bill. The result is pure alchemy indeed.

"This batch is pretty special. I've never tasted anything like it" co-founder and country music star Eric Church said. "Let's just say I won't be mixing this one with Diet Coke."

Whiskey JYPSI's Legacy Batch 002: "The Alchemist" is priced at $199.99 and will be available online at www.whiskeyjypsi.com and in select liquor stores across Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Colorado, Virginia and Ohio, with more markets to follow (while supplies last).

"We called Whiskey JYPSI's Legacy 002 'The Alchemist,' because Alchemists took unexpected elements and tried to change them into gold – turn them into something greater," says Outsiders Spirits whiskey maker Ari Sussman. "That's the job of a good whiskey blender. You start with high-quality ingredients and hopefully create something that's even greater - more than just the components."

60% of the blend is an 11-year-old corn whiskey from Tennessee aged in re-charred American oak barrels for sweetness. With fewer tannins thanks to the re-charring, this whiskey is smoother and rounder than most from Tennessee.

36% of the blend is a Canadian rye aged in ex-bourbon casks for 18 years. The liquid is then segmented into thirds and finished for 6 months in port, Spanish vermouth, and sherry barrels for added layers of dark red fruit, raisins, and oxidized wine. The final product is a rye whose spice is brilliantly countered by deep cherry, prune and fig notes. 

The last 4% of the blend is a rare, 10-year-old 100% Indian single malt matured in India's high temperatures and humidity. This is some of the finest Indian single malt available, with a Double Gold award at the San Francisco International Spirits Competition of its own to prove it.

The combination of these rare spirits lives up to its name, for a blend that is truly greater than the sum of its components. An aroma of fruits, caramel, butterscotch and macadamia nuts. Medium-plus viscosity. A balanced flavor of fruit and nuts with layers of cocoa, dried cherries, cinnamon and clove, and light hints of oak. All ending in a rye-forward finish that lingers with notes of chocolate, dates, and roasted almonds. For a final blend this is pure gold.
