Pinhook Flagship Rye 2022

The 2022 vintage of Pinhook Rye showcases bright aromas of pear, clove, walnut, and honeycomb. These transition to a vibrant palate of baked apple, black pepper, and toffee.

Each year, Pinhook releases a new vintage of bourbons and ryes. Every expression is the best representation of our barrels at that moment in time, and dedicated to a promising young thoroughbred. Through a combination of careful barrel selection, blending in small batches, and meticulous proofing, each Pinhook vintage has a personality as unique as the horse on the label. The 2022 flagship rye was crafted using Pinhook's proprietary mashbill. Developed, distilled and aged over 2 years at Castle & Key Distillery in Frankfort, KY, our latest rye was blended and proofed by Sean Josephs, our Master Blender.

RYE - 60
CORN - 20
MALTED BARLEY - 20
PROOF - 99

Pinhook celebrates the parallels between horse racing and whiskey, with each bottle inspired by classic jockey silk designs and dedicated to a promising young thoroughbred. For its labels every year, Pinhook selects two up-and-coming thoroughbreds with our partners at Bourbon Lane Stable, one with a bourbon-inspired name and one with a rye-inspired name.
