Lock Stock & Barrel 20 Year Straight Rye Whiskey
Lock, Stock & Barrel 20-Year Straight Rye Whiskey is sourced from Alberta Distillers Ltd. barrels that were hand-selected by late spirits luminary, and third-generation distiller Robert J. Cooper. It’s made from a rare mash bill of 100% rye grain in copper pot stills, and a “robust cut” is then selected and aged in cold weather in newly charred - not toasted - American oak barrels. Because American whiskeys must be aged in new charred oak barrels to be labeled bourbon or rye, they run the risk of becoming over-oaked the longer they’re aged. Lock, Stock & Barrel 20-Year avoids this result due to the cold climate, 3.5 barrel char, and lack of toasting, providing a rich and robust yet balanced taste.
Lock, Stock & Barrel 20-Year is a unique rye whiskey with a delicate but complex spiciness. In addition to its well-balanced profile, it has a very smooth body for an American whiskey.
