Bardstown Bourbon Origin Rye Whiskey 750ml

Bardstown Bourbon Company Origin Series Rye Whiskey

A bold reimagining of American rye whiskey. Bardstown's Origin Series Rye showcases a 95% rye mashbill—the highest rye content allowed while still being classified as rye whiskey—finished in a groundbreaking hybrid barrel system that pushes the boundaries of traditional maturation.

After initial aging, this rye is finished for up to six months in custom barrels featuring alternating American oak and cherry wood staves, each toasted to precise specifications. The cherry wood imparts unique bursts of flavor—bright cherry notes, subtle sweetness, and a hint of almond—that complement the bold spice and pepper character of the high-rye base.

The result is a rye whiskey unlike any other: waves of black pepper, cinnamon, and clove are balanced by notes of dark cherry, vanilla, and toasted oak, leading to a long, warming finish with layers of complexity. This is innovation and tradition working in harmony, showcasing Bardstown's collaborative, creative spirit.

Perfect for rye enthusiasts seeking something beyond the ordinary, craft whiskey lovers who appreciate innovative finishing techniques, and anyone looking for a bold, distinctive rye that stands out in cocktails or shines when sipped neat.
