Heaven's Door Straight Rye Whiskey

Heaven's Door Straight Rye breaks with tradition by finishing in toasted oak cigar barrels air-dried in the Vosges mountain region of France — a process that produces a smoother, more approachable rye with notes of orange peel, coriander, and spice.

Part of the Heaven's Door collection of American whiskeys created in partnership with Bob Dylan, this Straight Rye is distinguished by its finishing: toasted oak cigar barrels, air-dried in the low-lying Vosges mountains of France. The unusual finish softens the rye's edges, layering orange peel, coriander, and spice over the grain for a more approachable expression than most straight ryes.

It is well suited to sipping neat or in a refined rye cocktail such as a Manhattan or Sazerac.
