The family-run J. Haider Whisky Distillery began distilling in 1995 and presented its first whisky a good three years later: the Waldviertler Whisky J.H. was also Austria's first whisky. The distillery's range includes in particular rye and rye malt whiskies, but also single malts made from pure barley malt. In a global comparison, Austria is actually ahead of the USA in rye production, and the Haider family has focused on this expertise in rye whisky from the very beginning.

Production
The Waldviertel region offers optimal conditions, with more than half of all Austrian rye grown and harvested there. Rye and rye malt whiskies already account for 70% of production at the Haider distillery. The spirits are aged for up to 15 years in barrels made from Manhartsberg summer oak or sessile oak, which give the whisky a mild vanilla note.
This whisky is a single cask bottling, produced at the J. Haider Whisky Distillery. Jasmin Haider uses regionally grown rye from the Austrian Waldviertel. At a local malthouse, the rye malt is dark-roasted during the kilning process. The mash, made from 100% rye malt, is distilled in a copper pot still. The rye whisky then matures for five years in a Trockenbeerenauslese cask made of Manhartsberg summer oak. The dark-roasted malt provides malty caramel notes, while the former dessert wine cask adds honey and fruit aromas with a long-lasting finish.
