Pinhook High Proof Rye 2022

Bottled just under cask strength, our 2022 High Proof Rye opens with a soft and fragrant nose of orange blossom, honeysuckle, green apple, and baking spice, leading to a rich palate of walnuts, dates, spiced caramel, and white pepper.

With limited annual releases comprising a small selection of our finest barrels, Pinhook’s High Proof Rye is blended for whiskey enthusiasts and connoisseurs to get the best whiskey from those barrels, rather than the same one that’s come before. Every vintage is bottled close to cask strength, at a proof chosen to maximize complex flavors and integrate them with the alcohol for a long and balanced finish. Like all of our whiskeys, it is bottled unfiltered.

RYE - 60
CORN - 20
MALTED BARLEY - 20
PROOF - 116.4

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.
