Description
Stillwater Gold Label from Bushwood Spirits takes rye whiskey in an unexpected direction. Aged seven years and bottled at 95 proof, this straight rye is built on a mashbill of 51% rye, 45% corn and 4% malted barley — a low-rye recipe that lends the whiskey a smooth, bourbon-leaning character. Each bottling comes from a single barrel, produced in Stanford, Kentucky.
The combination of extended maturation and the corn-heavy grain bill results in a refined profile that sits apart from what most drinkers expect from rye. It holds its complexity neat, over ice, or mixed into cocktails, making the 750 ml bottle a useful pick for anyone exploring rye from a different angle.
