The same storied heritage as the classic 1776 Rye — Kentucky's oldest whiskey brand, dating back to 1780 — but taken to its most powerful expression. The 1776 Barrel Proof Rye is bottled straight from the barrel without dilution, delivering the full, uncut intensity of Colonel James E. Pepper's legacy.

Where the standard 1776 Rye is built for approachability, the Barrel Proof is built for the enthusiast — bold, concentrated, and unapologetically raw. Every batch varies slightly, making each bottle a unique snapshot of the barrel.
