Bulleit 12 Year Old Straight American Rye Whiskey

After inheriting the family recipe in the late 1980s, Tom Bulleit set out to make his own version of the Bulleit Bourbon. "We have a distilling tradition in the family," says Bulleit. "It seems kind of odd that one would have a family recipe for bourbon, but in our part of Kentucky everyone has one."Today they produce a range of four Bourbons and one Rye Whiskey that have received numerous awards, and have become the Spirits of choice for cocktail drinkers around the world.This Bulleit Rye Whiskey is crafted from a mash of 95 percent rye grains and 5 percent malted barley. Much like the bourbon, the grains are fermented with a unique strain of family yeast and distilled through a copper still. Following distillation, the rye is aged for 12 years. Expect pear-like fruit notes, dry, buttery oakiness, and faintly spiced notes followed by a balance of smoothness and spice.Pick up your bottle today!
