"The Rye Project" is anchored by a very low-content (51%) rye whiskey distilled in Indiana, aged in new American oak for 6 years, then transplanted to Sonoma County for additional aging.

This initial low-rye whiskey was blended with additional Rye barrels selected from the renowned Willett Distillery.  The majority of the resulting blend is Willett's 6 and 7 year Rye. 

To get there, Wolves Master Distiller Marko Karakasevic and Willett Master Distiller Drew Kulsveen selected 6 and 7 year old barrels of Willett straight rye whiskey with a 74% rye mash bill. The barrels were pulled from Willett warehouse A, South Rick 14, and warehouse H, South Rick 6. 

"We want to deliver straightforward and balanced expressions of the best rye in the world, in a lower-rye format," explained Wolves Co-Founder Jon Buscemi. "We started from a place of sweet more than spice, and built from there."

"The depth and complexity of this rye whiskey is unique and consistent with the elite quality produced by the Willett house," noted Buscemi. "We liked what was happening at 103 proof and bottled Batch One there. We were very fortunate to partner with Drew for our first run of Rye. " 

"The collaboration whiskey developed out of a friendship," noted Kulsveen. "I met the Wolves guys at a bourbon and cigar event in Bardstown a few years ago and our relationship grew from there.  The project was born out of the good times we've had together and will certainly fuel future celebrations. The Wolves team pays attention to every detail - down to the cork" 

The custom cork top was inspired by the knob of a baseball bat that is a family heirloom of Jon Buscemi. The textured label was created in partnership with a bespoke wine label producer in Sonoma County.

In 2017 Buffalo Trace released the 15 year bottling with a red foil topper instead of the traditional black.   These bottlings became known as “Santa pappy” and are extremely collectible amongst bourbon enthusiasts.

Each spring and fall, a new edition to the Old Fitzgerald Bottled-in-Bond series is released. Inspired by an original 1950's Old Fitzgerald diamond decanter, the packaging and series honor both the history of the Old Fitzgerald brand and the historic Bottled-in-Bond designation. The Old Fitzgerald line is well-known for its distilling pedigree, as the brand was first registered in 1884 and was eventually sold to "Pappy" Van Winkle during Prohibition. In 1999, Heaven Hill bought the brand and began distilling it at Bernheim Distillery in Louisville, KY. Today, in addition to our Old Fitzgerald Decanter Series, the legacy of Old Fitzgerald lives on in our other wheated Bourbons expressions: Larceny Small Batch and Larceny Barrel Proof.

Proof: 100 Proof

Age: Varies by Release

The nose is very rich and malty. It’s very fruity and a little tangy, with some subtle musty notes. There are hints of fresh cut grass, hazelnuts, caramel, and dark fruits. There’s a sweetness of maple syrup, fig, caramel apple, and vanilla balanced with malt, yeast, and a dash of pepper. It’s like a fresh baked pie in a glass. The mouthfeel is very buttery and smooth with a little heat on the finish.

Malt whiskeys matured 12 years or longer are perfectly matched with mellow grain whiskies of the same age to create this Hibiki offering. Also included is some whisky from casks formerly used in long-term aging of Japanese plum liqueur, which helps bring out the sweet floral notes on the nose and palate that Suntory whisky is known for. Adding venerable malt aged more than 30 years further brings out the bouquet and adds body to the palate.

Batch 1 was a limited release bourbon, distilled in 2009, bottled in 2017, made by MGP, and bottled by dumping together full-proof single casks. The operation took all 20 casks of the high-rye bourbon produced in this particular batch–3,358 bottles. The entire run is sold out and no longer available in retail stores.

A mixture of 3 of the 10 Four Roses mashbill recipes all varying in age. Specifically the 125th anniversary edition contains a mixture of OBSV (18yrs), OBSK (13yrs), and OESK (13 yrs). Light traces of wheat, fresh berries and floral smells stand out with subtle aftertones of fresh nuts and new wood. A mixture of old leather and aged cedar like a cigar box on the palette. Additionally, the berry smell from the nose continues on in the palate and you get light hints of sweet berries and dried fruit.

One of the last years that Pappy Van Winkle 23 was bottled using Stitzel-Weller juice before Buffalo Trace began using its own barrels for producing Pappy Van Winkle.

Woodinville 100% Rye Aged 8 Years. This is truly handcrafted whiskey. Planted in the Fall, rye grain lies dormant all winter long under a blanket of snow. When growth resumes, during the scorching summer months on the Omlin family farm in Quincy, Washington, the crop is hand irrigated. Nearly a full year after planting, at harvest, Arnie and son Joel work long hours gathering the grain, which is then trucked across the mountains to Woodinville for milling, mashing and distillation. After distillation, the whiskey is transported back to barrelhouses in Quincy, where it rests in custom-specified, long-seasoned, toasted and charred American Oak barrels.

“None of this is efficient, but it’s 100% worth it,” say Woodinville co-founder Orlin Sorensen. “We are laser-focused on quality, and if it takes an extra step or two on the journey, we’ll absolutely forge that path. We’re here to make the best craft whiskey in America, and we’re excited to share this Woodinville 100% Rye Aged 8 Years.”
