The Bardstown Bourbon Company Straight Rye Whiskey Origin Series Finished In Toasted Cherry Wood And Oak Barrels 6 Yr is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, offering a unique and compelling rye whiskey experience. After aging for six years, this 95% rye whiskey receives a finishing touch with a six-month maturation in hybrid American oak and cherrywood barrels. This finishing process imparts a distinctive character, resulting in an earthy and sweet nose filled with aromas of mixed berries, wet walnuts, black tea, Fruit Roll-Ups, and lemon pastilles. The addition of water reveals a buttery quality, which carries over to the palate, where flavors of chocolate, pistachio, banana bread, dried herbs, and subtle hints of citrus unfold. The mid-length finish is characterized by more nutty banana bread and a delightful chocolate-orange essence.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a six-year-old Kentucky straight rye built on a 95% rye mash bill, then given a six-month finish in hybrid barrels of toasted cherrywood and American oak. That finish is the reason it earns its spot on our shelf. Instead of leaning only on rye spice, it layers mixed berries, wet walnuts, black tea and a playful hit of Fruit Roll-Ups and lemon pastilles on the nose. The palate turns richer, with chocolate, pistachio and banana bread framed by dried herbs and subtle citrus, and the mid-length finish lands on nutty banana bread and chocolate-orange. A splash of water brings out a buttery quality that rounds everything out nicely. It suits the rye drinker who already knows the classic high-rye profile and wants to see what a cherrywood finish adds, as well as the collector following Bardstown Bourbon Company's Origin Series. Pour it neat first, then experiment. It is a bottle that rewards attention.
Pairs well with
- Dark chocolate walnut brownies — The whiskey's chocolate notes and wet-walnut aroma echo the dessert directly, just as the store's serving suggestions recommend.
- Pistachio biscotti — Pistachio shows up on the palate, and the biscotti's toasty nuttiness meets the banana-bread finish halfway.
- After-dinner rye tasting flight — Its fruit-forward, chocolate-orange profile stands out next to more traditionally spicy ryes and sparks good conversation about finishing.
