Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Kentucky straight rye built on a mash bill of 63% rye, 24% corn and 13% malted barley, distilled in 2017 and bottled at 100 proof. It comes from Heaven Hill's Grain to Glass initiative, a collaboration with Beck's Hybrids that starts the whiskey with grain sourced from Kentucky, so the story is as much about where the rye grew as how it was made. In the glass it opens with spicy rye, caramelized sugar, vanilla and a hint of oak, with dried fruit and cinnamon underneath. The palate turns bold, with toffee, dark chocolate, black pepper and a flick of citrus zest, before a long, warming finish of lingering spice and toasted oak. The corn and barley round out the rye's edges, which makes it approachable for someone newer to the style while giving enthusiasts a grain-focused bottling worth exploring. We carry it because it does double duty honestly: rich enough to sip neat, and sturdy enough at 50% ABV to anchor a Manhattan.
Pairs well with
- Smoked barbecue and spicy sausages — The rye spice and black pepper stand up to smoky, peppery meats, while the caramel sweetness echoes a barbecue glaze.
- Dark chocolate dessert — The whiskey's dark chocolate and toffee notes deepen a rich chocolate dessert, and the citrus zest keeps the pairing lively.
- Manhattan night with friends — Its bold rye character and 100-proof strength give classic rye cocktails like a Manhattan or Old Fashioned real depth.
