Long aged rye is genuinely difficult. Twenty years in oak will flatten most rye whiskeys, stripping out the bright peppery lift that makes the grain worth drinking and leaving something tannic and tired behind. The barrel selection here was led by Nicole Austin, Director of American Whiskey Liquid Development and Capabilities at Diageo, working alongside the Bulleit Distilling Co. team, and the brief was specifically to find barrels that could carry two decades without losing the spice. The whiskey is built on Bulleit's signature mashbill of 95 percent rye and 5 percent malted barley, the recipe that put the brand at the centre of rye's modern revival when bartenders in the early 2010s went looking for something spicier and more structured to build cocktails on. It was distilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, aged for twenty years, and bottled by BFW Spirits in Bardstown, Kentucky at full cask strength with no dilution. Expect seasoned oak and warm baking spice on the nose, then dark fruit, caramelised sweetness and mature rye spice across the palate, closing long and layered. It is bottled non chill filtered, and the label notes plainly that sedimentation from the barrels may be present, which is a mark of how little has been done to it rather than a fault. The release is capped at 1,776 individually numbered bottles in celebration of the 250th anniversary of America's founding, and rye is the right grain to mark that with, given how central it was to American drinking from the beginning. Sip it neat from a Glencairn and add water a few drops at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eABV \/ Proof\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68.5%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProof\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e137 (Cask Strength)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnited States\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDistilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBottler\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBFW Spirits, Bardstown, Kentucky\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProducer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBulleit Distilling Co.
