American Bourbon and Rye

This particular bottle was released only at the heaven hill experience gift shop.  It is the ONLY Elijah Craig barrel proof ever released in the standard 12 year white label bottle. This is the first barrel proof release ever for the elijah craig lineup and the next version had the same bottle design but the darker label stating elijah craig barrel proof.

To sip Barrel Proof is to experience Bourbon in its purest form: uncut, straight from the barrel, and without chill filtering. Each bottle is labeled with its unique proof and batch number; but the nose, taste, and finish are pure Elijah Craig.

Iconic original Stitzel Weller mashbill of the Pappy Van Winkle 20.  This bottle is truly a unicorn as it was barreled in 1989 just as Van Winkle was on its rise.   No other bourbon today can stand 20 years of aging, but this bourbon does it with style. Pappy Van Winkle was a true character. This bourbon, like Pappy, is full of the character that makes it a very special whiskey

This is the 2016 release of Michter's 10 Bourbon

Mature in age and truly exceptional in quality, Michter’s 10 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon has earned its place as an enduring favorite of the most discerning whiskey connoisseurs. The “Best American Whiskey” according to Food & Wine magazine, our 10 Year Single Barrel Bourbon represents the culmination of over a decade of patient aging in our specially chosen, new charred American white oak barrels. Sweet and grainy: corn bread slathered in honey, johnnycakes with cherry jam. Fizzy cream soda mixed with a bit of varnish segues into warm leather and a hint of summer-warmed dry grass, which is amplified with water. This is a very well-integrated whiskey with a lovely balance between creamy and spicy. There’s a full, rich, toffee sweetness throughout, balancing the earthy, humus-like bass notes in the mid palate. The finish is also very reminiscent of soda pop, almost giving the impression of carbonation, with a lingering muted spiciness.

Aged for a minimum of 6 years in Warehouse H, the heart of the Blanton's Distillery, this bourbon has developed a rich and complex flavor profile. The unique microclimate of Warehouse H, with its high humidity and fluctuating temperatures, allows the bourbon to mature more quickly and develop unique characteristics.

Back in the 1960s through the 80s, distilleries were having trouble selling their whiskey in bottles so they started creating unique bottlings through the use of Decanters. Old Crow, which was owned and produced by National Distillers created a full chess set of decanter bottles, complete with all pieces and the ability to send them postage to receive a carpeted chessboard as well. The whiskey inside is 86pf and age stated 10 years, but is among some of the highest rated whiskey by vintage enthusiasts that has ever been produced.

Note: Old decanters could possibly have some minor leakage during transit.  We will do everything to prevent leakage but some is frequently expected and we cannot be held liable for minor leakage.  Major issues - please contact us (such as decanter breakage, significant leakage) and please have pictures/video available.

Since the beginning of the colonial days in America, Marylanders have been trailblazing what has become the state’s signature style of rye whiskey. In the decades leading up to Prohibition, Maryland along with Pennsylvania and Kentucky led the nation in the production of distilled spirits and Maryland rye whiskey was imitated and sought after throughout the land. After Prohibition, the Maryland whiskey industry never fully recovered, and what was revived died a slow death, with the last Maryland whiskey distillery ceasing production in 1972. For the following forty years, the once-great Maryland whiskey lineage that spanned more than two centuries was no more.

MD Heritage Rye was recently started by two friends of ours in the spirits industry and was built to showcase some of the amazing brands and labels that existed during the long distilling history of Maryland.  Their first 3 releases are each made up of unique blends all consisting of 14 year MGP (Indiana distilled) rye, bottled at cask strength, which is considered some of the most sought after rye on the market today.  With a 14 year age statement this is also some of the oldest MGP rye released to the market in recent history and almost unheard of in the market today as most of the rye being released is half that age.  We had the privilege of sampling these 3 blends and they are all fantastic.  This is your chance to own a piece of "new history" and to celebrate the distilling history of Maryland.  

This is the first chance to own the entire set and we have a limited number available.  

MD Heritage Rye Collection includes:
1 Bottle - Mount Vernon straight rye whiskey, 14 years, 108.2pf
1 Bottle - Sherbrook straight rye whiskey, 14 years, 109.7pf
1 Bottle - Sherwood pure rye, 14 years, 110.4pf

For the past 9 years, Heaven Hill has released a special edition whiskey in honor of treasured former Master Distiller Parker Beam. This year's Parker's Heritage release is an 8 year old, non-chill filtered whiskey with a mash bill of 65% malted barley and 35% corn.With intense, sweet flavors of caramel popcorn and peanuts, you could say this is a real Cracker Jack of a whiskey! Dried fruits give this big, rich bruiser some needed acidity. As is typical with these high proof releases, it goes down a bit hot. Best enjoyed (on a porch at dusk, optional) with a large rock to take some of the edge off and allow the flavors to mellow in the glass.
