If you’re a fan of rye whiskey, Lock Stock & Barrel has just released something special that you won’t want to miss. The brand introduced its new, ultra-limited 25-year-old straight rye whiskey, making it the oldest rye whiskey currently available on the market.
This exceptional whiskey, with only 250 bottles produced, is a blend of select barrels distilled back in 1999 at Alberta Distillers. It boasts a rich flavor profile with notes of baking spices, toffee pudding, caramel, chocolate, cinnamon, and dried cherry, rounded out with a long, warm finish of oak, smoke, and rye spice.
Chad Solomon, the Director of Innovation at Cooper Spirits, emphasizes that the 25-Year-Old is the culmination of their ultra-aged rye whiskey collection. Its unique development after 25 years of gentle aging in Canada’s cold climate results in an extraordinary complexity that highlights the quality of the distillate.
You can find Lock Stock & Barrel 25-Year-Old Straight Rye Whiskey in limited quantities at select retailers worldwide, with a suggested retail price of $999.99. If you’re looking to add a piece of whiskey history to your collection, this limited release is certainly worth considering.
