Straight Rye Whiskey, 2025 [Green Wax]

Straight Rye Whiskey 2025 Green Wax
  • 2025 vintage straight rye whiskey produced by Pinhook Whiskey
  • Distilled at Castle & Key Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky; blended by Pinhook Co-founder and Master Blender Sean Josephs
  • Mash bill of 60% rye, 20% corn, 20% malted barley; all grain non-GMO
  • Distilled in a Vendome copper column still and 375-gallon doubler
  • Aged over 3 years in char #4 new American oak barrels; non-age statement
  • Proofed with ground-fed, limestone-filtered spring water
  • A nose that’s abundant with sweet, honey roasted peanuts and fresh alfalfa hay leads to a palate of rich baking spices, caramel, and ripe bananas
  • Non-chill filtered; 49.5% ABV

As a core Pinhook expression (just like its counterpart Orange Wax bourbon), the Green Wax rye is crafted to showcase the very best qualities of a particular vintage while maintaining a price point that allows it to shine in both cocktails and neat pours. As the Pinhook brand matures and the blending team accrues further precision and finesse, a whiskey that retains house style without sacrificing the nuances of the season proves tailormade for the winner’s circle.

"Pinhook has always liked focusing on single vintages, whether via its Vertical Series or more recently in its core bourbon and rye line, each produced using proprietary mash bills at Kentucky™s Castle & Key distillery. The 2024 vintage of Pinhook™s straight rye arrives at an approachable 45 percent ABV, brimming with attractive brown sugar, orange creme brûlée, and vanilla notes."
