Description
What happens when rye whiskey meets an uncommon oak variety? That question sits at the center of the Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Specialty Barrel Series Rye Whiskey, which extends the distillery’s grain-to-glass approach into the realm of barrel experimentation.
The 2025 release spent seven years maturing in barrels made from Missouri-grown Chinquapin oak, sourced through a collaboration with Independent Stave Company. Bottled at 53.5% ABV in a 700 ml format, it pours with bold rye spice ahead of rich caramel and baking spices, with toasted oak and a warming depth giving the whiskey its structure.
