Lock Stock & Barrel 21-Year Straight Rye Whiskey is the fifth release in the celebrated Lock Stock & Barrel series. This new product is the oldest and most intensely flavorful straight rye whiskey currently available on the market, trumping its predecessor the Lock Stock & Barrel 20-Year Straight Rye Whiskey.
Crafted for the most discerning spirits connoisseurs and collectors, Lock Stock & Barrel 21-year is double distilled in copper pots from a rare mash bill of 100 percent rye grain. A “robust cut” is selected by master distillers, then the unfiltered spirit is aged in new charred American Oak barrels in cold weather for 21 years and bottled at 111 proof. The result is a deeply intense, yet harmonious straight rye, with rich and unified notes that suggest warm spiced date cake, treacle toffee, orange peel and baking spices.
